INTRODUCTION
The Geology Demonstration Kit permits students at all levels to visualize the causes and forces that shape the earth's surface. Constructional landform building actions of volcanoes, folding, and faulting can be demonstrated. Hard to define basic geologic terms, such as anticline, syncline, horst, graben, lava flow, can be defined by demonstration. Also, the action of folding and faulting, and other phenomena can be observed. Numerous projects provide a basic geologic understanding for the elementary student, or solidify concepts and introduce the advanced student to more complex subjects, such as isostatic movement and dip and strike. |
