Webquest Navigation and Earth Layers

This video tutorial guides students through a webquest on plate tectonics. It begins with setup instructions, followed by an exploration of Earth's structure, including the crust, mantle, and core. Students learn about the lithosphere and asthenosphere, and how to label Earth's layers. The tutorial covers plate tectonics, including the movement of plates and identifying plate boundaries. It concludes with an activity on ordering continents over time, encouraging students to engage with the material interactively.
