Tectonic Plates

This week in Social Studies, we are studying tectonic plates. Students read about tectonic plates, how water always flows from high areas to low areas, the four types of mountains, and more. To "see" tectonic plates in action, we used graham crackers to simulate our learning.
our tools: cracker, plate, & "bubble of water"

tectonic plates floating on molten rock

we create mountains
we left part of a cracker for a "little taste"

Just another day ... playing and learning with food.
