Eating Our Plate Tectonics

During this activity we learned how plate tectonics work on earth by using a mars bar as our model. I enjoyed it because it was fun using a mars bar to demonstrate different things and eating it. 
This is the different layers of this mars bar that I made.
This is a divergent plate bouandry these two land masses (mars bar) are moving apart from each other. As you can see in the photo above. 
This is a convergent plate boundary wher one of the plates are going on top of the other plates.
This is a transform plate boundary where the two plates are rubbing against each other.
These are the last two main types of thing that can happen which are continent to continent where two land masses are pushing into each other. The picture on the right is continent to ocean where the land mass is going on to of the water mass causing it to heat up which can cause volcanos.

I hope you enjoyed learning about how I learned about plate tectonics.
