{geography lab} salt dough land forms

I never understood geography until I was an adult. I think for many kids, geography is too abstract and seems meaningless. I discovered that I learn places on a map from experience, either traveling or through really amazing stories. The notion of memorizing capitals and countries without a tether to something real is about as alluring to me as cleaning the bathroom. Learning metro and train systems, driving through states, or pouring over maps of the places I read about is how I have come to understand the world and its physicality.

To that end, my kids recently did a project that would be amazing for anyone learning about a specific place. 1. 2. Sight Word Road Map Game. First, we made houses and buildings for our "town".

After they decorated them, I wrote different numbers that I wanted my daughter to practice on them. Then, I used masking tape to make the roads and I wrote different sight words for the street names. We set up the houses on the streets and then started our delivery business. I would tell my daughter which house number on what street needed a delivery with her little toy car. For example, "Go to house #13 on See Street. Clay Model Of the Earth’s Layers. 13 Apr 2013 Making a 3D model is an easy hands-on way for kids to learn what the Earth is made of. We read about the Earth’s layers, to begin with, in The Magic Schoolbus – Inside the Earth . Then we grabbed some clay and the children used the pictures from the book to make their own models. (I was going to make one too, until I realised how much plasticine we were going to get through!) First roll a small ball of clay for the solid metal inner core . The inner core is about 1,500 miles in diameter. Next the melted metal outer core .

Then the solid rock mantle . Followed by the Earth’s crust (one layer in our models, but in reality, layers of sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rock). And finally, the oceans and continents. When you’re done, use a sharp knife to cut your Earth in half to reveal it in cross-section. Infographic: Tallest Mountain to Deepest Ocean Trench. Mural.ly - Google Docs for Visual People.
