The 4th graders are learning about the layers of the earth. We compared the layers of the earth to an apple. The crust of the Earth is like the skin of an apple. The mantle is like the inside (white) part of the apple. And the core of the Earth is just like the core of an apple.
Here we are inspecing our apples.
After we understood the parts of the earth and how they correlate with the apple we had a discussion about the Earth. They asked very good questions and we talked about how we cannot go to the core of Earth because it is 7000 degrees F.
After the lesson was over we all enjoyed a healthy snack!!
