Hey guys! So here's the dirt on dirt, since we have so many test grades this 6 weeks, this will be a shorter blog with only vocabulary and BIG picture discussion. It will count as a quiz grade on this 6 weeks. The instructions for the blog are below!
Unit Vocabulary- define each term in your own words and include a picture that ties in to the term to help you remember the definition.
The list is below:
Asthenosphere
Lithosphere
Plate Techtonics
Tectonic Cycle
Divergent Plate Boundaries
Convergent Plate Boundaries
Transform Fault Boundary
Physical Weathering
Chemical Weathering
Erosion
Deposition
Cation Exchange Capacity
Cation Exchange Capacity
Base Saturation
Soil Degradation
Ores
Big Picture Reflection- This is where you will make the four BIG PICTURE connections to the ENTIRE UNIT. Please tie in information you learned in your reading, from completing your assignments, the documentary we watched and from your lab. There is not an exact length that I am expecting other than it should definitely be at least a paragraph for each section, should be thorough and show understanding of the topic. Remember to be specific in your examples. Do just say "there are laws that govern this" or "people destroy the Earth." Give me the names of the laws, what they regulate and who enforces them. Tell me what humans are doing to destroy the earth.
