Background Paragraph: Almost all earthquakes occur at plate boundaries. All types of plate boundaries have earthquakes. Convection within the Earth causes the plates to move. As the plates move, stresses build. When the stresses build too much, the rocks break. The break releases the energy that was stored in the rocks. The sudden release of energy is an earthquake. During an earthquake the rocks usually move several centimeters. Rarely, they may move as much as a few meters. Elastic rebound theory describes how earthquakes occur ( Figure below ). 
Story: Two nearby villages are experiencing earthquakes. Bow village gets a lot of earthquakes annually, while Arrow village gets only a few.
Which village experiences fewer plates moving? Which village experiences fewer rocks breaking? Which village experiences fewer sudden releases of energy? Which village experiences less stress build up in the rocks? Which village experiences more plates moving? Which village experiences more rocks breaking? Which village experiences more stress build up in the rocks? Which village experiences more sudden releases of energy? Which village gets less convection within the Earth? Which village gets more convection within the Earth?
