Layers of the Earth with Clay

10/1/2013

  Last week we made earths out of clay. We rolled an orange ball out of clay and wrapped our layers around it. The inside orange layer is the inner core. It is solid. The red layer is the outer core. It is made up of rocks and minerals and is so hot that it is liquid. The thickest layer is the mantle and it's yellow. We haven't drilled down to the mantle yet! The thinnest layer is called the crust, which we live on!  Which layer is your favourite layer and why?

Making clay earths was fun! I remember when we were cutting the earths in half! My favorite part was when we made the earths!My favorite layer is the Crust, because we live on the Crust

Hi Grade 3SB,

Your clay models of the earth are very detailed! I can clearly see the layers and I know that you deepened your understanding of the layers by creating the model and talking about it. Great work! My favourite layer is the outer core. It amazes me that it is liquid!
