We are continuing to study the unique landforms that are created by different forms of stress and different types of boundaries. We have learned that each boundary has its own type of stress: compression occurs at convergent boundaries, tension occurs at divergent...

This week we began our study of Earth's Dynamics. This will take the information that we learned about last chapter on plate tectonics and plate boundaries and tie this into the landforms that we have. We will be exploring mountain building. This week, we specifically...

We have finished our study of continental drift and plate tectonics. Our test for chapter 7 is today, Thursday. Grades will be posted on RenWeb later in the evening. This is also the end of the quarter, so grades that are on posted will be the grade for the quarter....

This week we will finish our study of plate tectonics and we will be ready for our test before spring break. We will take our test on Thursday, March 7. Students should use the weekend to make sure they know their vocabulary. We will spend next week reviewing and...

We have finished lesson one on plate tectonics and will continue to look at the development of Wegener's hypothesis into a theory. Unfortunately, for Wegener, it didn't become a theory until after his death. Most scientists did not agree with his views because he...

This week we started our notes for chapter 7 on Plate Tectonics. We also spent some time on Tuesday learning about what our life science class will be like next year during Step Up Day. We looked at the power of the Great Flood which, as Christians, we believe was the...
