Discovering Earth's History Through Continental Rearrangement

Explore how rearranging the continents reveals insights into Earth’s geological history. By studying the ancient supercontinent Pangaea, which existed between 350 and 200 million years ago, students will understand the impact of plate tectonics and how the current continents were formed. This activity encourages critical thinking about geological events, their sequences, and their implications on physical geography. Engage with visual animations of Pangaea to deepen your understanding of Earth's transformations over millions of years.
