Fact vs. Fiction

After our unit on Plate tectonics students are asked to use their knowledge to determine factual events vs. fictional events in a made for TV movie.  Dante's Peak is a PG-13 movie that depicts the events leading up to an eruption of a volcano and the aftermath.  Students will use the content we covered as well as any prior knowledge they have to answer questions.  The questions and the information are posted below.
