![Page 1: Plates make up the crust of the Earth Can you see any similarities between the plate boundaries shown here and The ones you found with your earthquake.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f2a5503460f94c43e17/html5/thumbnails/1.jpg)
Plates make up the crust of the EarthCan you see any similarities between the plate boundaries shown here andThe ones you found with your earthquake and volcano data?

Tectonic Plates Come In Two FlavorsOceanic Plates are thinner and denserThey are represented by your fruit roll up pieces
Continental plates are thicker and less denseThey are represented by your graham crackers
Tectonic Plates Can Interact in Three Basic WaysConvergent Boundaries converge or come together
Divergent Boundaries diverge or move apart
Transform Boundaries slide past each other
We will model these interactions with our food
