Layers of your Planet

You learn that the inside of your planet is similar to Earth. We need to Research Earth's layers to better understand the layers of your planet.

Theory of Continental Drift and the theory of Tectonic Plates

Your planet also has Tectonic Plates! How cool is that?? Read about Earth's Tectonic Plates to better understand your planet.

As you've learned, tectonic plates move. But, what happens when they move. Learn about the plates and their boundaries.

Plates and boundaries

Convergent Boundary

You have three circles. One circle represents the inside of your planet. The second circle represents your supercontinent. Your third circle represents how your planet looks now.

You will fold your circles and glue them together. Your planet in the present will be on top. One flap will be inside of your planet and the other will be your supercontinent.
