I Need Help ASAP! How Does The Slow Movement Of Crustal Plates Change The Earths Surface?

Oh my god, I love plate tectonics! But, try reading your textbook before asking us to do your homework.

lol! its a Collins write, and i did read my text book, about twenty times, we've been working on it for a week now, and i still don't get any part of it, so could you help me?

shan tell us what you "think" might be the answer and we'll attempt to guide you. Its important for your mind to do some of the work rather than us giving you a box of knowledge. My teachers used to say the same thing about copying from an encyclopedia.

what's a collins write?

I bet you think I'm joking about loving PT. I'm not. I talk about it in bars with my friends when and have to stop when their eyes start to glaze over.

DP's right - you start, we'll guide.

A Writing to Learn approach helps students explore, engage in, and apply new information as they write. The Collins Program is designed to, “help teachers in all content areas achieve their goals by requiring students to think on paper. This is accomplished by using frequent, usually short, writing assignments to increase students’ involvement in lessons, check on their understanding of concepts, or promote their thinking about content.” (Collins) Students may be asked to:

* “List relevant information they “know” about a new concept or topic just before it is presented to them.
* Put a concept from the text or another source into their own words " to “translate” it or summarize it.
* Make a connection between a concept from class and something else they know about or have experienced in their own lives.
* Explain how ideas are similar (despite their differences) or different (despite their similarities).” (Collins)

i think its when two tectonic plates with continental crust collide they buckle and thicken , which pushes the continental crust upward , am i close ?

Absolutely!

That is one form of plate tectonics called uplifting. The Himalayas are a result of India crashing into Asia.

yea, but i need like more information, i need to answer that question with AT LEAST ten sentences, and i dont know how to put thoose two sentences into ten, i need some more information, think you could help just a little? :-)

Can you type the writing prompt here?

try a practical experiment.
Place a sheet of paper and a book side by side on the table. push the book and the paper together. ---> <----
What happens?

What Do You Mean? Like Type The Question Here , Or Type The Collins Here?

The question you are supposed to write about.

" Describe How The Slow Movement Of Crustal Plates Change The Earths Surface To Form Mountains"

How many type of plate tectonics are there? Try describing the differences between them

write this down

Do you think that volcanic mountains can be included as part of your write up?

What grade level are you at?

seventh
