Materials:
- Two wet sponges/towels
- Your observing eyes
- Spectacular Science Appalachian mountain video
- An adult science helper!
Directions: Watch the video below! Now it’s your turn to make your own mountains and demonstrate how convergent plate boundaries work. Take the two sponges/towels and put them on a flat surface. Now, push them into each other slowly. Observe the ridges that form. That’s how mountains form! Try this demo with different materials, speeds at which you collide, and many more factors!
