This Tectonics Model demonstrates the principle of superposition and the concepts of transgression, regression, and compression.

• Provides dramatic visualization of faults

• Students calculate as they recreate tectonic compression
• Instructions included
• Teacher developed
• Aligned to NGSS standards (MS/HS: ESS1, ESS2)

Add a new quantitative dimension to tectonics demonstrations with this innovative device. When using this box, pressure is applied with a screw mechanism that measures equal increments of force over distance. Students can simulate folding, faulting, and mountain building.
