_____________________________________________
Due Date: ____________________________________
Guidelines:
A.) Each item is to be done on a separate page (you can do one on the front and one on the back, but
not two items on the same side).
B.) Each item must be labeled with the item number.
C.) All items must be IN ORDER and BOUND IN A FOLDER. It can be a paper folder with prongs.
NO 3-ring binders. Any loose items will NOT be graded. Please DO NOT use sheet protectors.
D.) NO typed items, a 15 point deduction will be given if typed.
E.) Grading:
 Each item is worth 4 points as follows –
 1 point for item being NEAT & in COLOR.
 1 point for item being COMPLETE with item number.
 1-2 points for CORRECTNESS. (1 if you’re on the right track; 2 if you are correct.)
F.) 10 points will be deducted for every day that the project is late. It is due at the BEGINNING of
class.
G.) This will count as a test grade.
Items:
1.) Draw a cross-section of the Earth showing its 6 layers – crust, lithosphere, asthenosphere,
mantle, outer core, and inner core. Be sure to label each layer and draw the convection current.
List the elements that are found in each layer.
2.) Explain what occurs as you go down into the Earth as far as density, pressure, and heat. Which
layer is the thickest and which is the thinnest? Also tell which layer is the heaviest.
3.) Illustrate and explain the steps, which result in an earthquake. Label the 3 types of waves, the
focus and the epicenter in a diagram representing the earthquake.
4.) Illustrate the two layers of the Earth’s crust; list the rock type they are made of and indicate
which rock is denser.
5.) Which layer of the Earth a wave will travel through faster – the crust or the mantle. EXPLAIN
WHY THIS IS SO.
6.) Illustrate and explain which layer of the Earth is responsible for Earth’s magnetic field? Tell
what 2 elements are in this layer that causes this phenomenon and why.
7.) Explain and illustrate a seismograph machine and a seismogram.
8.) Illustrate triangulation and explain how seismologist use this information.
9.) Name the 3 types of rock, tell how each is formed, and find a picture of each type.
10.) Illustrate the rock cycle. Be sure to include all arrows needed and label them.
11.) Draw 2 tectonic plates showing a divergent boundary & explain what landform is created and why.
12.) Draw 2 tectonic plates showing a convergent boundary where one plate is oceanic and the other
is a continental plate & explain what landform is created and why.
13.) Draw 2 tectonic plates showing a convergent boundary where both plates are continental &
explain what landform is created and why.
14.) Draw 2 tectonic plates showing a transform boundary & explain what occurs and why.
15.) Illustrate Pangaea and explain the four evidences of continental drift.
16.) Draw a labeled picture of a volcano. Include: vent, magma, lava, intrusive & extrusive igneous
rocks
17.) Explain and illustrate the “Ring of Fire”. (what causes it and where it is located)
18.) Draw a NORMAL FAULT. Explain how this type of fault occurs and the type of stress that
occurs there.
19.) Draw a REVERSE FAULT. Explain how this type of fault occurs and the type of stress that
occurs there.
20.) Draw a STRIKE-SLIP FAULT. Explain how this type of fault occurs and the type of stress that
occurs there.
21.) Illustrate and explain how a folded mountain is formed.
22.) Illustrate and explain how a fault block mountain is formed.
23.) Explain the difference between an aerial picture, satellite image and a topographic map.
24.) Create a topographic map illustrating 3 hills & 2 valleys. Be sure to indicate the contour interval.
25.) Find a picture of your choice and give a qualitative observation, quantitative observation, an
inference regarding the picture.
