This reading passage describes the four layers of the Earth: crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. It is a great way to bring literacy into your science lesson, or to being a non-fiction text into your reading lessons (both important parts of Common Core).The passage contains basic information about the depth and composition of each layer as well as a little bit of background information including crustal plates and how seismologists were able to determine the composition of the core.Al...

Students construct the layers of the Earth (inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust) using an Oreo, some chocolate syrup, and a small candy piece. This is such an exciting activity to use when teaching a lesson on the layers of the Earth. 7th Grade Science, Science Education, Science Activities
A yummy Model!

6th grade science lesson. Part 1- collaborative groups. Each group takes a layer. Including Lithosphere and Asthenosphere. Each group researches, diagrams, and artistically depicts their layer on a large piece of butcher paper.After presenting their findings to the class, all the sections are pieced together. Then each student creates their own. Teaching 6th Grade, Teaching Life, Science Projects, Geology Lessons
