Moving Cities
This activity helps student determine the rate at which continental drift is causing cities to move toward or away from each other. Using current and past longitude and latitude data, students calculate the rate of increase or decrease in distance between large global cities. This data can then be used to predict the future movement of the cities based on historic trends.

Glacial Simulation Lab (velocity slope)
Five page lab on glaciers. Students use flubber to simulate the flow of a glacier down a slope. Students calculate the speed of the flow. Students first preform a control and then get to test a variable such as changing slope, increasing friction decreasing friction, or more. Students develop a hypothesis and test it. Comes with short answer questions. Great for an Earth Science teacher.
