 Introduction
Belief systems are tested in the novel Bless Me, Ultima. As readers follow Tony through his young life, they might find that their own beliefs are subject to change.

Readers should already know or will have learned that authors/novelists are "prevaricators." Students will attempt to find meaningful similarities between the novel and Anaya's life.

Plate Tectonics and Earth's Structure

(6) 1. Plate tectonics explains important features of the Earth's surface and major geologic events. As the basis for understanding this concept, students know:

a) The fit of the continents, location of earthquakes, volcanoes, and mid ocean ridges, and the distribution of fossils, rock types, and ancient climatic zones provide evidence for plate tectonics.
b) The solid Earth is layered with cold, brittle lithosphere; hot, convecting mantle; and dense, metallic core.
c) Lithospheric plates that are the size of continents and oceans move at rates of centimeters per year in response to movements in the mantle.
d) Major geologic events, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building result from plate motions.
