Geography – How are mountains formed?

Sunday 19 January 2025

In Geography this half-term, we are learning about natural disasters with a particular focus on volcanoes and earthquakes.

We have been fascinated to learn about the layers of the Earth and tectonic plates.  On Thursday we investigated how mountains are formed.  The children were challenged to read an explanation of how volcanoes can form mountains and to draw a picture that they could use to describe the process.

Help at home – Can your child use a picture to explain this process to you?
