Observing a pot of water that is being heated up is an example of
Critical Thinking
Is a basketball spinning on someone’s finger a rotation or a revolution?
Rotation
Why would 20 Rotations make you more dizzy than 20 revolutions?
Because if you are rotating you are spinning in circles. If you are completing a revolution you are running around something.
What is a normal fault?
Crust is separating/divergent boundary
The ability to recall known knowledge and research is
Understanding
The ability to connect data to success or failure of a solution is
Evaluating
the earth rotates on an
Axis
Ryan thinks the earth has a crust, mantle, inner core and outer core
Shane thinks it has a crust, mantle and a liquid core, and hard core. Who is correct?
Ryan
What is a reverse fault?
The crust comes together/convergent boundary
The ability to develop and build a solution is called
Creation
I predict cold water takes longer to heat up than warm water. What am I doing?
Thinking
If you follow these steps
1. define the problem
2. Research
3. Generate solutions
4. Select solutions
5. Test Solutions
6. Evaluation
What are you doing?
Participating in the Design Cycle
Is magma a liquid or solid?
Liquid, it is fluid.
You measure earthquakes with
Seismograph it gives you a number based on the Richter Scale
What 3 skills do we use when we think?
Observing, predicting, and communicating
What cycle are you using when you critically think about solutions for an issue?
The cycle of inquiry
Planets going around the sun are an example of a
Revolution
The crystal plates move on
A) molten magma
B) the inner core
C) the ocean
A
If you went to Hawaii and you saw an erupting volcano. Is the orange stuff coming out of the volcano magma or lava?
Lava
What are you doing when you are looking for information to form a judgement?
Critical thinking
Give an example of a cycle of inquiry
Engineering design cycle
Why does a leap year occur every 4 years?
It takes the earth 365 and 1/4 days to rotate the sun. The 1/4 becomes a full day every 4 years
1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4= 1
What part of the earth contains liquid molten magma?
The mantle
What kind of plate boundary happens when plates slide past each other sideways?
A Transform plate boundary
Testing an idea and collecting data to determine success or failure is called
Application
