People have been dreaming about traveling to the center of the Earth for hundreds of years. Imagine what it would be like if you could travel to the center of the Earth. Think about what you would see on your journey to the center of the Earth. Now tell a story about your journey to the center of the Earth.

S: Layers of the Earth

FC: Layers of the Earth

1: Essential Question: How are layers of the Earth different from one another?

2: The Earth is made up of 3 main layers: | Crust Mantle Core

3: It is the thinnest layer of the Earth that ranges from only 2 miles in some areas of the ocean floor to 75 miles deep under mountains Made up of large amounts of silicon and aluminum Two types of crust: oceanic crust and continental crust Composed of plates on which the continents and oceans rest | The Crust

4: Two types of crust: oceanic crust and continental crust The crust is composed of plates on which the continents and oceans rest

5: The mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth making up 70% of the Earth's mass.

6: - Solid but capable of flow (like hot asphalt or fudge) - The hot material (magma) in the mantle rises to the top of the mantle, cools, then sinks, reheats, and rises again. These convection currents cause changes in the Earth's surface.

7: - Molten (liquid) metal that is about 4,700C (8,500F) Located about 1,800 miles beneath the crust and is about - -- 1,400 miles thick Composed of the melted metals nickel and iron | Outer Core

8: The Inner Core | The inner core is a solid sphere composed mostly of iron. It is solid because of the pressure from the outer core, mantle, and crust compressing it tremendously

9: Inner Core | It is believed to be as hot as 6,650C (12,000F) Heat in the core is probably generated by the radioactive decay of uranium and other elements | Inner Core

As a scientist you will be exploring different models to represent what the Earth's interior is made up of.

After a brief review of the layers of the Earth and completing the chocolate-covered cherry hands-on activity (C) the learner (A) will be able to with 100% mastery (D) describe the location of each layer of the Earth in relationship to the other layers and the relative size of each layer in relationship to the other layers by:

1.     Sharing with their group members

2.     Students will answer their hypothesis from the beginning of class with their own reasoning of what they have learned about the layers of the Earth. They need to have specific vocabulary terms when answering their hypothesis.
