Sea Floor Spreading—Student Laboratory Kit
Simulate the amazing process of sea floor spreading and continental drift over geological time using this hands-on activity model! Students use the detailed model to observe the forces that push the tectonic plates apart and cause continental drifting. They then recre- ate the processes that led to the expansion of the ocean over the past 150 million years by taking visual “snapshots” of the Earth as it evolved through the Jurassic and Cretaceous Periods and into the Cenozoic Era. Includes thorough detailed background information, step-by-step procedures, student worksheets, complete teacher notes with sample data and answers to all questions and enough materials for 30 students working in pairs.
Modeling Faults— Student Activity Kit
In this hands-on activity model kit, students create multicolored and multilayered land- form models that simulate normal, reverse and strike-slip faults for further inspection to explore the properties of types of faults. A unique and inexpensive way for students to investigate the movements of each type of fault. Includes detailed procedures and student handouts and valuable Teacher Notes. Complete for 30 students working in pairs.

Investigating Plate Tectonics Lab Activity
Introduce students to plate tectonics as they analyze fossil similarities among the continents with a fossil catalog. Using colored patterns, students compare today’s continental arrangement with that of 100, 200 and 300 million years ago as they
make connections with continental drift and evolution. Includes 8 posters (four sets of five different continents) and The Mystery of the Far-Flung Fossils activity book. One kit serves all classes.

World Geophysical Relief Map
View the whole world at once with this brilliantly colored, raised-relief map. This wall-size, three-dimensional map features land elevations and color keys to terrain, vegetation and ocean areas. Includes scales, time zones, ocean features and depths, national capitals and city populations. Printed on write-on/wipe-off, vacuum-formed vinyl. 38" x 20".
