Miss Selle's Science Songs - Plate Tectonics

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Middle school scientists will think you're the coolest teacher on the planet when you use this video to help them understand the basics of plate tectonics. The lyrics, compiled by science teacher Sue Selle, are played to the music from rapper Flo Rida's "Whistle." They provide an easy-to-understand explanation of the role of plate tectonics in such phenomena as volcanoes, earthquakes, transform faults, oceanic and continental crusts, and more.
