- On the next two blank pages in your INB, create a
Plate Tectonics Foldable. - Fold each page in half vertically.
- Cut the paper in half vertically, cutting from
the outer edge to the half way point to create a

- Use the latitudes and longitudes to create a map
with the locations of different crustal features. - Mountains Green
- Volcanoes Red

located? - Why are mountains being formed on the boundary
between the Indo-Australian Plate and the
Eurasian Plate? What kind of boundary would you
expect to find there? - Using the map, what type of boundary do you think
is between the Indo-Australian Plate and the
