The Planet Engineer's Workshop
Build models that explain slow changes beneath and above Earth's surface.
What you'll make
A moving card plate model, rock-cycle story cards and an explanation of one process with its limits.
What you'll learn
- Geological time
- Plate movement at constructive and destructive boundaries
- The rock cycle
- Weathering and soil formation
You'll need
Card, split pins or paper strips, pens
No baking-soda volcanoes — they don't explain plate tectonics. No graphic disaster images.
Curriculum links
- Understand tectonic processes and hazards, including earthquakes and volcanic activity
- Understand how geographical processes interact to create distinctive human and physical landscapes that change over time
- Interpret and analyse a range of quantitative and qualitative data, including statistical data on trends and relationships between geographical phenomena
