What does 6th grade plate tectonics cover?

In 6th grade, students learn that Earth's crust is broken into plates that move slowly over the mantle. After this unit they can describe continental drift, name the main kinds of plate boundaries, and explain how moving plates form mountains, earthquakes and volcanoes. Grade levels vary by country and school.

How can looping help with plate boundaries?

Plate boundaries are easiest to understand from the animation. Set an A–B loop on the part of FuseSchool's "Plate Tectonics" that shows plates pulling apart, pushing together and sliding past, and replay it at 0.75× until a student can sketch all three types.
