Iain (link to his mom's blog) introduced us to this online science fair. Pangea is when all the continents were joined together. It was around the dinosaur time. I traced all of the continents, the way they are now in the world. I hated this next part. I transferred the traces to white paper to make the pieces for the Pangea puzzle. But in the end, I used our map of the world more than I used the pieces to figure out how they used to fit together. They moved because of earth quakes and other disturbance under the ocean making Pangea crack apart. I have a theory that it was meteors too. Here is what Mommy and I thought about how they used to connect:
-India was connected to Australia
-Alaska was connected to south America
-Ontario was connected to France/Spain
-Greenland was connected to north America
-south America was closer to north America
-western Africa was connected to the .u.s and to brazil.
Here is a picture of what Pangea really looked like. We were right about some of it.
I also really like dinosaurs. That's what made me do this project.
