Let’s start with some new science wordsto add to our notebook:
Core:Core:

On your note card, answer:On your note card, answer:
1. On which layer does erosion and 1. On which layer does erosion and weathering occur on Earth?weathering occur on Earth?
I wonder how Earth’s layers relate I wonder how Earth’s layers relate to plate tectonics?to plate tectonics?
NotesNotes Earth’s crust is broken into pieces, Earth’s crust is broken into pieces,
which “float” on the mantle layerwhich “float” on the mantle layer These pieces, called plates, are always These pieces, called plates, are always
moving, but very slowlymoving, but very slowly The plates move apart, collide into one The plates move apart, collide into one
another, and slide against other platesanother, and slide against other plates
