As part of my assignment this past week, I was asked to take photos of my students and film them while taking part in the use of a model activity. Students used a hard-boiled egg in order to model the three types of plate boundaries and what forms at the boundaries. Although the model was not perfect, the students enjoyed the change of pace in the classroom, and felt the tectonic plates moving in their hands. They had fun and learned at the same time.
Janice - what a great idea! Did it easily work out with the egg shells? That is literally a sensitive material to work with!

ReplyDeleteI almost tried this one, but decided on something else. Nice to see how it worked in your class. Thanks for sharing all the pictures!
