Plate tectonics
A collection of teaching and learning resources to help your students understand plate tectonics, including the structure of Earth’s crust, the difference between continental crust and oceanic crust, and the different types of plate boundaries: constructive/divergent, destructive/convergent and conservative/transform boundaries. There are also resources on how plate movements create landforms such as mountain ranges and ocean trenches.
