Living in an active zone
Revision lesson
Why are plate margins hazardous?
• What are the plate margins and how do plate movement generate a variety of landforms?
• What are the primary and secondary hazards associated with volcanoes and earthquake zones?
• Why do people continue to live in hazardous zones?
The structure of the earth…..• THINK ABOUT
WHAT THIS IMAGE HAS TO DO WITH THE EARTHS STRUCTURE?
• YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE TO SEE IF YOU CAN COME UP WITH AN ANSWER
• YOU MUST USE THE WORDS ;
Core Mantle Crust
You will be selected at random to share your answer with the class!!

Destructive plate boundaries
• Think about the direction that these plates move in….one of you will be selected at random to come to the front of the class to mime the motion of a destructive plate boundary!
• No helping
• No shouting out

What happens at the destructive margin?
1. As the pressure is released we get earthquakes.
2. Where plates move together, the denser oceanic crust slips down into the mantle under the continental crust.
3. An oceanic trench is formed on the sea bed.
4. Molten magma is forced to the surface where we get volcanoes eventually building a mountain range.
5. This movement builds up a large amount of pressure between the two plates.
6. The oceanic plate melts. This is known as the zone of subduction.

Why do people live in hazardous zones?
You have 2 minutes to come up with as many reasons as possible to explain why people live in risky areas! GO!
No choice
Fertile soil
Unwillingness to move
Geothermal energy
Tourism
How can the risks associated with volcanic and earthquake zones be
reduced?
• How are volcanoes monitored and what does this tell us about their state?
• How might the effects of volcano eruptions and earthquakes be reduced in MEDCs and LEDCs?
