Description
Help students discover the evidence behind continental drift with this engaging hands-on Pangaea puzzle lab! Students use fossil evidence, matching mountain ranges, and the shapes of the continents to reconstruct the ancient supercontinent Pangaea while developing a deeper understanding of Alfred Wegener’s Continental Drift Hypothesis.
Unlike open-ended puzzle activities, this resource provides teacher-directed procedures, making it easy for students to successfully complete the investigation while focusing on scientific evidence instead of guessing.
