Material Literacy

In this activity, youth are asked to select different foods to represent different layers of the Earth in their model. 

One of the layers in the model is the Earth's crust, or lithosphere. Based on the description of the lithosphere from the youth worksheet below, what snack food might you select that has similar qualities? Add your ideas in the comments section.


Find a food item that you have nearby, wherever you are watching. Play with your food for a moment!

What do you observe? What kind of qualities does this food item have, and what other foods can you think of that share these qualities? Share in the comments the food you selected + one of your discoveries about your food!
