World Tectonics Map Exercise

World Earthquakes and Volcanoes Map Exercise

The  "World_Tectonic_Maps.psd"   file is a layered photoshop
stack of maps.

Print out each layer separately.

Xerox Maps 2-6 onto paper and Map 1 onto a transparency.

For best results do all the copying at the same time; machines
change scale from day to day.

Make a set (1 transp and 5 paper) for each 3-4 students.

Supply each group with one red and one dark-colored WASHABLE
     transparency pen (if they use permanent, you will have to throw
     the transp away and do the copying over again)

The Exercise, below, is one I use the first day in my Upper Division
     Plate Tectonics Class.

Feel free to alter it to suit your own purposes.
