Types of Tectonic Plate Interactions

This product includes:

black and white poster showing types of tectonic plate interactions
color poster showing types of tectonic plate interactions
two worksheets
one page for interactive journals
This download provides sheets you need to make sure students understand the types of land forms created by different tectonic plate interactions. Students will know what divergent, convergent, subduction and transform boundaries do and how they move.

They will get to fill charts and label the images to describe what type of interactions are taking place. By writing and drawing students will know the different types of interactions needed to make mountains, earthquakes, and trenches.
