Using chocolate to model plate margins

New ELI today is 'MarsTM margins - diverged, converged and transformed; modelling plate margins with a MarsTM bar - apart, together and side by side'

A demonstration of the three types of plate margins, their stress fields and characteristics using a MarsTM Bar. This activity is a bit messy but very enjoyable!

Other Earthlearningideas to do with plate margins can be found on our website.
