About the Earth.

Structure of the Earth Facts

We are learning about the structure of the Earth.

I learnt that the Earth is made up of 4 layers. They are:

Facts about each layer:

Crust - The crust it the top of the mantle and under the mantle is the Outer core and the inner core. We are standing on the crust.

Mantle - The Mantle is boiling hot and the rocks are melted ,so it is soft and squishy.

Outer Core - The Outer core is 4-6000 degrees Celcius, even hotter than the sun.

Inner Core - The inner core is the hottest place and is below the outer core. It is solid because of the pressure from the outer layers surrounding it.

Our group -  

First we created a 3D image of the earth using clay.

We then cut the shape in half to show the different layers. After waiting for it to dry, we identified each layer by painting them in different colours.

Below are some pictures of our work.

Science Fair

We have been learning to complete science investigations. We learnt about the scientific method. We will share our learning at our school science fair.
