The World's layer

 Layer
Lithosphere
Topics: Plate boundaries,Plate Tectonic &Faults.
Activities: 3Mini poster&BrainPop Video.
Lithosphere is the solid part of the earth. There three type of Faults Normal fault (rocks moves down) Reverse fault  (Rock move upward) and Strike slip  (rock slide past each other). the plate when the crust is broken into piece that move on top of the liquid mantle (asthenosphere) is where the Convection current happens that moves the plate floating on the mantle, plate are divide into piece because the plate tectonice theory. the tectonic plate are also part of the lithosphere. And the plate boundaries is the border between two plate. Divergent boundary ( plates moving apart) Convergent boundary plate come together Transform boundary plate slide past each other moving opposite direction.these also causes Earthquake and Tsunamis to occurs.

Ashenosphere
Topics: Earthe;s Interior
Activities: 2Foldable &Song

Ashenosphere is the air that on the earth it allows gases solide and liquids. part of the lithosphere moves around of the earth caused by movement of the mantle.the continental crust is the thick part of the earth's crust ,that is made up of large landmss.in the upper mantle of the earth's interior characterized by low density. the zone of the earth's mantle lying beneath the lithosphere believe to be hotter and more fluid than the lithosphere. the mantle is the inside of the earth's surface and  crust is the outside of the earth. crust is also wherewe live in. 


Mantle
Mantle a very thick and made up of the molten rock that is like liquid and flows very slowly like honey.the mantle lies between the crust and the core of the earth. The inner core is solid it made up of nickel and iron, the outer core is liquid and it made up of melted(iron and nickel), and the mantle solid/plastic. This is because of the relative melting points of the different layers in the Earth's interior.It moves the plates of the crust with convection currents.

Critical Thinking Question
Do you agree with the theory of the plate tectonics? why or why not?
I agree with the theory of plate  tectoinc that landmass are broken into piece scientists Alfred Wegener proved that by providing evidence Fossils, rock records, mountain ranges and the puzzle. when all continents were together and how everything fall apart as we live in today also all  the earthquakes and tsunamis that are happening in the countries.

.Reflection
1.What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
the most thing I enjoyed about this project is that we have a lot of choices to do the project and I really enjoyed doing the video music because I never done something like that before so it was really cool for me to try something different.

2.What was the most challenging for you during this project and why?
The most challenging for me during this was finding all the information of each topic and making sure all the project was complete on time.

3.What new skills did you learn from doing this project?
I learned how to make video on imove and how record music.

4.Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work?Explain
Something that I would to improve my work is to get tested in all the topics that I did because that would improve my grade more.
