Go directly to Plate Tectonics activity (114K - requires Shockwave Take a hard-boiled egg and crack its shell. Does the egg remind you of anything? The Earth, perhaps? The egg could be seen as a tiny model of the Earth. The thin shell represents the Earth's crust, divided into plates; within the shell is the firm but slippery mantle. Move the pieces of shell around. Notice how the shell buckles in some places and exposes "mantle" in other places. The same thing happens on Earth, but on Earth, this activity results in the formation of mountains, earthquakes, and new ocean floor. Even though the theory of continental drift was proposed in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, the idea of moving continents wasn't generally accepted until the early 1960s. That's when Wegener's theory was resurrected by Harry Hess, Robert Dietz, Fred Vine, and Drummond Matthews. The ensuing theory, known as plate tectonics, has had a major impact on Earth Sciences. It represents a scientific revolution as significant to geology as relativity was to physics. This activity lets you manipulate tectonic plates. Pull the plates apart and push them together and watch what happens to the Earth.

Earth Science Lessons Following are Earth Science lessons Scott Johnson (sjohnson@grand-forks.k12.nd.us) , an elementary school teacher in Lincoln Elementary in Grand Forks, has developed. These lessons are geared toward and tested by 5-8 grade students. Here is a philosophical discussion of how one teacher - Scott Johnson, a member of the VolcanoWorld development team - plans to use VolcanoWorld in his 5/6th grade classroom. Specific lesson plans like those listed below could be components of Scott's general plan. Let us know how you might use VW in your classroom. The CopyMaster in each chapter has questions and answers that can be used by teachers. Please read the README file in the CopyMaster before using the lessons.

99. Rader's GEOGRAPHY4KIDS.COM While there are over 50 activities for earth sciences alone, we have almost250 activities for all of the material we cover on the site. http://www.geography4kids.com/

The content that was on GEOGRAPHY4KIDS has been moved to the new subscription based KAPILI.COM. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We believe that directing our efforts into one large science site will create a more successful learning experience. We hope you visit the new site. Learn a little about the new site below... TUTORIALS (Over 50 for Earth Sciences): The Kapili tutorials break down key ideas of science, math, and technology. Our tutorials are designed to break down a single topic into four parts. Each part will have a short paragraph and graphic used to illustrate an idea. We are using this style to help you learn complex ideas in bite-sized pieces. While there are over 50 activities for earth sciences alone, we have almost 250 activities for all of the material we cover on the site. You might be asking, "But what about a big topic like cells?" Using cells as an example you will find one page that talks about the general idea of what a cell is. Linked to that page and our main biology tutorial list you will find dozens of other pages. If you are new to cells you can start there and then move to a tutorial on the cell membrane, mitochondria, and even peroxisomes. Each of the detailed tutorials will also have the same layout with four paragraphs and four graphics. Current earth science tutorials include information on: Climates, Weather, Biomes, Atmosphere, Biosphere, Hydrosphere, and the inner workings of the Earth.
