4H use the snow for a geology lesson

19 January 2024 (by Catherine Passmore (catherine.hakner))

Year 4 made the most of the snow this week and decided to create tectonic plates!

We then pushed them together to recreate the way that tectonic plates push and fold whatever is between them to form mountains. Some mountains are 250,000,000 years old and have been worn down by the wind and weather.

We don't often get snow so this was a real treat!
