Edible Aquifers and Slinky Seismic Waves

We had a great Geography Fair at our Home Ed group yesterday.

They got to find their home on an ordinance survey map and plot the coordinates,

made edible aquifers,

learnt all about the four different types of seismic wave (P, S, Love and Rayleigh) using a slinky




Discussed tectonic plates using cake as an example



Explored rivers


Looked at the effects of earthquakes on Lego buildings (it was an upside down table resting on balloons) and explored the geographical locations of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

We also got to enjoy some fruity milkshakes donated by A2 milk (#sharethekindness)



 (and yes - the spotty cow balloons they sent were used under the earthquake table)
