Plates affect us by the earthquakes they cause. A magnitude 7-9 earthquake, (7 will destroy well built buildings. 9 wide spread destruction) will destroy practically everything.

Continental Plates
Continental plates are made of a rocky substance. They move across the mantel of the earth, the mantel is a liquidy rock layer under the earth crust. The Plates are what cause earthquakes. On faults the plates grind together untill pressure becomes unbearable for the plates and they suddenly move or they push up and make mountains. Also they can push down and make valleys.
