We have been learning about earthquakes. I worked with the teacher and a group of buddies to finish a Google Drawing and a PMI.

Structure of 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 the Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, Inner Core.

Facts about each layer:

Crust - The crust is the thinnest layer on the Earth. It is were we live and it is between 8 to 40 km thick.

Mantle - The mantle is the thickest layer and it is made out of Iron and Nickel. The mantle is so hard and deep that you can't dig straight through it.

Outer Core - The Outer Core can reach up to 4,000 C to 6,000 C. The Outer Core is squishy like a marshmallow.   

Inner Core - The final layer is the Inner Core, it is the hottest and deepest part of the Earth. Even though it is extremely hot in the inner core, it remains solid because of the pressure created by the other layer all around it.

Our group -  Kane,Max,Jaxon

First we created a 3D image of the earth using clay, knife and paint.

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

The Living World Unit
