Summary: This week we learned about how all of the continents used to all be one thing and when it was it was called Pangaea. It all used to look like the picture that I have. Alfred Wegener was the first one that found this but then no one else believed him. He passed away because he traveled but got stuck in a blizzard. 30 years after his death a different scientist Hesse found out the same thing and he had proof so it was official that it is true. If you do not believe that is why we have earthquakes because it is when to pieces of land rub against each other to make them both move.
S&EP: Developing and using models
This week we made a model of Pangaea and the way that we did this is we got a paper with all of the continents and a little extra land because back then the places were bigger and the reason they are smaller now because the land go worn down.It also had pictures of animals and plants because the plants from one place had to match up with another.We colored the paper then we cut it out so that we could make the continents into Pangaea and after we got approval we glued it into our notebooks.
