Geoblox Grand Canyon Models

Geoblox models provide a multi-learning approach to help students understand concepts and structures from the inside out as they build their own models.

• Includes a cross section and topographic modelof the Grand Canyon
• Models are to scale with no vertical exaggeration!
• These models provide a tactile and visual-learning approach to difficult concepts
• Simple assembly
• Explanations printed on backs of models

This is a spiral bound booklet designed to be used as a copy master to produce enough model patterns for your entire class. You can also enlarge the patterns to use them as demonstration models.

Included are grand canyon topographic model, entrenched meander formation series, grand canyon cross section, sedimentary rock formation, transgressive - regressive sea, angular unconformity, disconformity, nonconformity, paraconformity, normal fault, reverse fault, monocline, principles of stratigraphy series - eroded surface, principles of stratigraphy series - deposition of layers, principles of stratigraphy series - faulting and igneous activity, geologic correlations activity.

Ordering information: Models do not come preassembled. Students and educators are meant to use the patterns and instructions in the booklet to construct the models for educational purposes. Constructed models can then be used as a permanent classroom display.
