The Contour Model Kit offers a hands-on approach to studying topography, terrain concepts, and landforms. By immersion in water, the model of Mount Capulin allows the shape of earth surface features to be displayed in two dimensions using hand drawn contour lines. Ideal for visual learning, this kit is great for demonstrating how topographic maps represent the natural features of the earth. Perfect for earth science and geography classrooms, this kit includes everything needed to build and study contour models, providing students with a practical understanding of landscapes and elevation changes.
