What did you do?
Today in class we first went in to our groups and preformed 2 different experiments. One called ‘Plates that Separate’ and the other called ‘Colliding Plates’. We then finished writting up the practical and answered the questions concerning the experiment. At the end of the lesson we had to hand up our prac reports from the previous lesson for Sir to mark.
What did we investigate?
Today my group investigated two different things. First of which was to investigate how the plates separate and what causes that to happen. The last one was to see what happens when three different types of plates would collide into each other.
What did you learn today?
After conducting the experiment and answering the questions provided in the book, I have learnt about how lava from deep below the ocean floor comes up from under group and how it is able to change the look of plate (this what creates ocean ridges but after many years).
On the second experiemnt I have found out that depending on the type of plate another plate collids into depends on what it will form or how it will move.
