ACTIVITY NO. 1

FAULT MODEL

Objectives:
Construct a model of Fault
Materials:

 crayons or colored pencils

 scissors
 tape or glue
 metric ruler
 folder/ cartolina
 Fault Model Sheet

Procedure:

1. Color the fault model that is included according to the color key provided.
2. Paste or glue the fault model onto a piece of folder or cartolina.
3. Cut out the fault model and fold each side down to form a box with the drawn features on top.
4. Tape or glue the corners together. This box is a three-dimensional model of the top layers of the
Earth's crust.
5. The dashed lines on your model represent a fault. Carefully cut along the dashed lines. You will
end up with two pieces. Tape or glue a piece of construction paper on the side of the two fault
blocks along the fault face. This will help with the demonstration.
