Students will slide, smash, and crash plate tectonics together to simulate how mountains, volcanoes, and new lands are formed using this iSprowt’s Earth and Volcanoes kit! Each kit has all the materials for 2 students to complete 6 NGSS aligned activities, including:

– Slide, smash and crash plate tectonics together to provide evidence-based explanations for how geoscience processes change Earth’s surface.

– Use chemistry to erupt a volcano.  Then create a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materials, the flow of energy that drives this process, and how volcanoes change the surface of the Earth.

– Use observations and analysis from both the volcano and plate tectonic investigations to explain why some future catastrophic events can be forecasted and others cannot.

– Do a fossil dig and discover an ancient shark tooth buried deep in the Grand Canyon then use this discovery to provide evidence of past plate motions.

– Create an erosion lab and model wind, river, rain, flood and ocean erosion.

While students work together on activities, they each receive their own 56-page NGSS and ELA aligned workbook.  Empower learners with investigations, modeling, and written interpretation.   The highly engaging workbook is packed with student-friendly instructions, NGSS aligned science materials, and thought-provoking writing prompts to deepen understanding.

iSprowt’s phenomena-based science kits were developed to help students achieve their highest potential in school and in life.
