Pellets Inc Mystery of the Far Flung Fossils: Investigating Plate Tectonics Kit

Let your students build a rock-solid foundation for forensics and earth science with The Mystery of the Far Flung Fossils: Investigating Plate Tectonics Kit! Students will be able to collect geological and biological evidence from 5 continents (African, India, South American, Australia, and Antarctica), both analyzing fossil data and restructuring each of these continents into the so-called Gondwanaland. Color-coded maps feature 4 different time periods (today and 300 million, 200 million, and 100 million years ago), along with illustrations of fossils, glacier grooves, plants, and dinosaurs. Just like a puzzle, students can cut the maps apart and then manipulate pieces in various way to explore (and explain) how continents have changed and shifted over time. Activity guide and 20-page teacher's guide (with reproducible student study guide) is included. Kit/activities best suited for Middle School to High School levels.

Investigating Plate Tectonics Kit combines earth science/geology, history, science theory, and other STEM/STEAM skills as students learn about geological features, plate tectonics, and try hands-on experiments Varied demonstrations in Activity Guide allow for students to combine both creative, analytical, and scientific based thinking skills Assorted colorful continents and varied lifeforms illustrations add realistic, historical feel to demonstrations and multidisciplinary learning Comprehensive tectonics kit comes with teacher's guide, color-coded maps, and reproducible student worksheets/study guide for adding into your science curriculum
