What evidence exists that the continents have drifted around on the globe over the past several million years? Today, we examined three main pieces of evidence: the fossil record, rock & climate records, and glaciers. All three of these objects leave significant evidence that the continents were once connected and have since drifted apart.Today’s class was largely spent completing the Continental Drift Guided Notes along with engaging and thought-provoking discussion on the topic. Tomorrow we’ll complete a continental drift puzzle activity as we close out the geology unit. Don’t forget that the Geology Test #2 is next week and the Study Guide is currently available.
