Get you students moving around the room. They often learn better when they are moving, collaborating and having fun.

Music is inspiring and is a great way to help students find interest in the topic being studied and grasp the information. I use it often! This lesson implements June Carter Cash's and Johnny Cash's song, Ring of Fire, as part of the introduction. In addition, the lesson discusses not only the plates but also the boundaries and how they move creating new landforms. Students will, in addition, track and plot earthquakes and volcanoes.

o The learner will describe the events that occur along the Ring of Fire—earthquakes and volcanic activity.

o The learner will plot recent earthquakes and volcanoes in the Pacific Ocean on a map to discover the relationship between these events and the plate boundaries.

o The learner will determine the types of boundaries that lie within the Ring of Fire

MATERIAL NEEDED:
o Copies of Ring of Fire lyrics, Johnny Cash version, written by June Carter Cash (Included)

o Technology to play the song as learners follow along with the lyrics. (Find the song on Youtube or Spotify)

o Demonstrations: Graham crackers, peanut butter, a plate, and something with which to spread the peanut butter (or substitute icing or anything creamy) (5) bowl of water (If you want you can have students take part in the demonstration, provide enough for learners to work in groups.)

o Tectonic Plate Puzzle (Included)

o Map to display the Ring of Fire (Included)

o Ring of Fire Tracking Map to identify seismic activity along the Ring of Fire. (Included)

o Technology for the learner to use to track seismic activity during the last 12 months —suggested site USGS.org

Students will have fun with this high-level, fun thinking activity. This lesson is a wonderful introduction activity. This will encourage students to explore the characteristics that define a nation: economics, culture, government, religion, etc.

This is best used as a beginning-of-the-year activity to understand the concept of what a nation is.

Students will work in groups to create a "Country Recipe" of a country/nation based upon its economic, political, and cultural characteristics.

The outcome? Students will understand what it means to be a "nation", whether a developed nation or a developing nation.
