    The document is an activity sheet from Pangangan National High School about convection currents. It contains instructions for an experiment where students heat water in a beaker, add food coloring, and observe how the coloring moves. They then place wood blocks in the heated water and observe what happens to model how convection currents cause tectonic plates to move on Earth's surface. The activity aims to explain plate tectonics and help students understand the importance of convection currents beneath the Earth's crust.

    Name: Score:
    Year and Section: Date:
    Subject: SCIENCE Type of Activity: Activity/Exercises
    Activity Title: Push Me Up and Aside!
    Learning Targets: Explain what causes the tectonic plates to move.
    Enumerate the factors that cause tectonic plates to move.
    Realize the importance of the creation of convection current
    underneath the earth.
    References: Title: Science 10 Learner’s Materials
    Page Numbers: 70 – 71

    Materials: (DO NOT COPY)


    • dropper • food color • 1000 mL beaker • 700 mL water • 3-5 small / light wood
    blocks • hotplate/alcohol burner & tripod

    Procedure: (DO NOT COPY)

    1. Pour 700 mL of water into the beaker.


    2. Place the beaker on a hotplate and heat it. Give ample time for the water to heat
    up.
    Warning: Make sure that you know how to operate a hotplate. Wear heat
    resistant gloves to protect your hands. In the absence of a hotplate, you can use an
    alcohol burner.
    3. Add a few drops of food coloring to the water in the beaker.
    4. Looking from the side of the dish, observe what happens in the water.
    5. Put several light wood blocks in the center of the heated near to boiling water.
    6. Illustrate your observations.

    Exercises:
    1. How does the food coloring behave?
    2. What do you call this behavior?
    3. Enumerate the factors that cause the formation of a current.
    4. What happens to the blocks? What does this resemble?
