Eleventh graders analyze and interpret an animated model of Earth’s rifting processes.  In this Earth Science lesson, 11th graders connect Earth’s rifting processes with the Earth’s surface in the Gettysburg battlefield.  Students apply the heat engine model of the Earth to the continental rifting that occurred in the Gettysburg area millions of years ago.
