Earth's Interior/Heat Transfer Notes

In class, we have been looking at the interior layers of the Earth. We completed a project earlier this week that including constructing a model of the layers of the Earth. The notes we took in class summarizes the main information students are responsible for knowing regarding this unit. We also started to talk about the three different ways that heat is transferred, with a focus on convection, as we prepare to talk about the theory of plate tectonics.

A copy of the completed notes can be found below. Students should review and study these notes as they prepare for a quiz on Thursday, May 12th.
