P5m’s Dynamic Earth Visit

 

P5m have so much to share about our recent visit to Dynamic Earth at Holyrood in Edinburgh. We began in the the Stratosphere dome and watched a short clip which showed the Earth’s creation over billions of years. Next we explored different stations which looked at different rocks, earthquake simulations, ICT natural disaster games and created our our mini tornadoes using water bottles.  We then explored many of the many rooms that Dynamic Earth had to offer such as the Rainforest, the polar regions as well as the volcano room.

 

We would definitely recommend a visit to Dynamic Earth as we felt it brought to life many of the world’s natural disasters and allowed us an insight into how they happen. Take a look at some of our learning…
