Under the earths surface ( Marshmellow edition )
Yummy earth
Today we did a really fun activity using sweets.
Crust
The crust was the chocolate ( It was melted by the way. )
Mantel
The mantel was the marshmallow.
Inner core, Outer core
The Inner core was the chocolate inside the m an m, The outer core is the shell of the m an m.
Tectonic plates
We had to squeeze the chocolate to make little cracks and those are the tectonic plates
Here is one photo of my marshmallow

Under the earth's surface ( Egg edition )
Today we look at an egg and how it represents the Earth's Crust,Mantel,Outer core and the Inner core. Urmi boiled the eggs and when my group Sam, Jukah, Riley T and Me ( Paige ) cut open the egg it smelt revolting to our noses. We saw that the egg shell was the crust of the earth and the white thing in the egg was the mantel and the grey ring around the yoke was the outer core and the yoke was the inner core. That's what we did today. Urmi said that we have a nother fun one tomorrow. Here is one photo of my team.
This is a very bad photo

Under the earths surface
The Core,
The metal core is mainly made out of Iron. The inner layer of the earth is made out of soled iron and the outer layer is made out of liquid iron.
The mantle,
It's made out of rock, causing the rock to behave a little liquid and a little solid.
The Crust,
Is a part of the earth that we humans can walk on,It's quite thin and breakable, The crust is 5-70 km deep, The crust is broken into enormous pieces called tectonic plates.
Tectonic Plates,
It's the bumping and rubbing that causes earthquakes and volcanoes. There is 6 large tectonic plates and a few smaller ones. They slowly move and bump against each other at a rate of a few milometers to up to 20 cm per year.
