SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL

Tuesday 8 November 2011 to Friday 20 July 2012

KS3 - STEM
Learn about the raw power of heat and pressure that lies beneath our very feet.

This hands-on interactive session involves examining the structure of the Earth using crème eggs and a basketball and using custard to explain how the crust and mantle interact. Finally they will learn what happens at the places where two plates meet and how this causes devastating earthquakes and volcanoes.
