Here's a great idea from a teacher who loves our Tectonic Plates paper model! Laminate it, add velcro & make labels (in your language of choice) for your students to label the models. Brilliant!

An international team of scientists, led by senior researcher at the Institute of Planetary Sciences Oleg Abramov, conducted a series of virtual experiments on a model similar to the origin of Earth.
