model earth plasticine

Year five

Make a model of the layers of the geosphere using different coloured plasticine.

Make a small sphere with red plasticine. Add additional layers of different colours. Make each layer a differen thickness to illustrate the pro`portional thickness. Cut a section of the sphere with a knife so the layers can be seen.

This is the model you could follow but you can change the colours if you like.

Take a photograph of the model. Copy it onto your computer and use labels where you will need to type:
