We have learned through watching Wegener’s Video that this Theory of Continental Drift was that the continents formed as one land mass called Pangea and then drifted apart. We started recording the evidence he presented for his theory on our Continental Drift Concept Map. There is still one last piece of evidence that was very important to his theory that we haven’t learned about yet. Below you will read and annotate an article that will give you the final piece of evidence.

INSTRUCTIONS: 

In class we read and annotated the article below:

.If you missed this in class, make sure to ask for a paper copy to add to your Science notebook at school. Remember that when you read, you should mark anything that matches your purpose for reading as well as using the other annotation symbols. If you have forgotten what they are you can refer back to this: Reading and Annotation Text Symbols.

PURPOSE FOR READING: Find evidence that supports Continental Drift Theory. 

Also if you are having difficulty knowing what to mark you can see my example below. I have read and annotated my article the way it makes sense to me. Yours doesn’t have to look exactly like mine since you are writing your thoughts as you read.
