We have had several new discoveries since Alfred Wegener’s time that have supported his theory. This is why his theory of Continental Drift became the basis for today’s Theory of Plate Tectonics. In the webquest below you will be learning all about these new discoveries. Learn all you can so that in a future assignment you can use that information to travel back in time and tell Wegener he was right! 

Instructions: You will use the worksheet below to learn about plate tectonics. Visit the websites to fill out the different sections of the webquest to learn about Plate Tectonics.  When you have finished, take a picture of your worksheet and upload it to this assignment.
