Pangaea Project

We made a paper mache earth, using a one part flour to two parts water recipe and a balloon. We only did two layers as it seemed to be strong enough!
Then KM painted it blue to represent the water and we printed out a copy of Pangaea from here and taped it on.

Then we printed out a second version from here to show how the plates separated and shifted apart.

It was amazing to see her actually get the concept!

Awesome idea--it's something my boys would love, I am sure. Thanks!
