Question

how make ocean floor model

Answer 1

1. Draw a quick plan of an ocean floor as seen from the side; including the
edge of a continent, continental shelf, continental slope, continental rise,
abyssal plain, trench, seamount and mid-ocean ridge. Be sure to label your
sketch! (BONUS POINTS for adding more features, such as guyot, rift
valley, coral reef, volcano.
2. When your plan is approved by your teacher, create the ocean floor in your
shoebox with paper mache.
3. When the paper mache is dry, cut or punch about 10 holes slightly bigger
than a large straw spaced evenly apart down the center of the shoebox lid.
Be sure the holes stretch across the entire box lid! Put on the box, hiding
your ocean floor. Tape the lid securely to the box.
4. On graph paper create a graph with the numbers one to ten along the
bottom (number of holes) and about 1-25 (measurement in cm) up the
other side. Label the graph. (Example: Distance from Shore vs. Depth of
Ocean)
5. Trade your shoe box with another group's shoe box.
6. Once the graph is set up properly, put the straw in hole #1 until it hits
"bottom". Record the measurement on the graph with a simple dot. This
continues for holes #2-10.
7. When all of the holes have been graphed, join your dots using a ruler. Label
the parts of the ocean floor on your graph.
8. Open the shoe box and compare your graph with the actual ocean floor.
Then return the shoe box to the group who made it.
9. When you get your shoe box back, make small labels for each of the ocean
floor features and add to your shoe box. Make sure to add all the names of
your group to the box lid AND box and hand in for a grade.
