Highest mountains in Europe
  • Long time ago there was a huge sea on the site where now the Alps are

Faults in the Earth's crust

Slabs or tectonic 
plates

Constantly moving



Slide 14 - Diapositive

The movement of plates
  • Side by side


  • To each other


  • Away from each other

Slide 15 - Diapositive

Formation of the Alps
Endogenic forces
fold mountain range
Mountain range formed when the collision of tectonic plates creates folds in parts of the Earth’s crust.

Slide 16 - Diapositive

Experiment
We are going to mimic the formation of the Alps. The important thing is that you participate, and I don't expect students to fool around.
Equipment:
  • Cutting board in pairs
  • Snicker & Mars
  • Knife (Teacher)

Slide 17 - Diapositive

Steps
1) Get a cutting board
2) The teacher will give you the candy bars
3) Wait for the order to open the candy bar
4) Throw the papers of the candybars in the thrash can

Slide 18 - Diapositive

Steps
5) Gently press the mars against the snicker on the cutting board. They should go together. Be careful!
6) Wait for the teacher to come by, to cut the snicker and mars in half
7) Watch the explanation of the teacher
8) At the end you can eat the candybars

Slide 19 - Diapositive

Sedimentary rock

Slide 20 - Diapositive

Formation of the Alps
Endogenic forces
fold mountain range
Mountain range formed when the collision of tectonic plates creates folds in parts of the Earth’s crust.

Slide 21 - Diapositive

Fold mountain range
  • A lot of pressure
  • Rock changes due to pressure --> metamorphic rocks
  • From limestone to marble
  • People use this rock for houses and buildings
