Hi, I was recently assigned an extra credit project of creating a 3D diagram of the layers of Earth. At first, this seemed like a simple task, where I could just cut out an eighth Styrofoam ball and label the inside. But, my teacher wants something original... something she hasn't seen before. This requires a bit more creativity than finding old things online, as because other people in past years have used most ideas I could find online. An example of a diagram that a student last year used, which got a perfect score, was a glass jar, with colored sand, each color representing a different layer of the Earth. He made sure each layer of sand was proportionally accurate compared to the actual size of every layer. The project has no limitations, so I can use as many or few materials as I want, and it can be as large or small as I want. So, this is where I need your help... Can you come up with ideas? The project is due Thursday, 5/16, so I want to start working this weekend. Thanks in advance, a 9th grade science student
