This earth science lesson focuses on analyzing the structures that form at plate boundaries. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read a passage and complete a graphic organizer. They identify information that describes the type of boundary (convergent, divergent, transform) and the structure formed (mountain, volcano, trench, etc.). In addition to the lesson, there is one page of Independent Practice and review modeled after current adaptive testing items.
