Activity 1.6 The Location of Plates (Grades 4-6)
Activity 1.6 is a jigsaw puzzle. The plate tectonic map of the world has been cut along plate boundaries, and the pieces (plates) randomly arranged. Print the activity and ask students to cut out the pieces and reassemble the tectonic map. Describe the major geologic features that correspond to plate tectonic boundaries, i.e., mid-ocean ridges, trenches, and mountain ranges.
