Lesson Planning
Recreate an area of either the Andes or the Alps mountain ranges in a 3D model.
Teaching Outcomes:
- To select materials to create a 3D mountain range and to begin to consider how best to strengthen the structure.
- To demonstrate an understanding of the key aspects and details of mountain ranges when creating and describing a model mountain range.
Children will:
- Choose an area of either the Andes or the Alps mountain ranges to recreate in a 3D model.
- Plan how best to build the model, and which resources would best suit the task.
- Consider key features that need to be included in their model, including snowline and vegetation.
