The Edinburgh II 16" Blue Ocean Raised Relief Floor Standing World Globe sports clean, sophisticated lines, a gyro-matic full swing meridian which allows you to fully view the soft blue oceans and brightly colored landmasses. Comes with additional hardware that will allow you to change it from a floor standing globe, to a desktop globe! Standing a total of 38" tall, this beautiful world globe boasts a rich walnut finished pedestal and matching base. The sphere features both political boundaries and raised relief, providing the mapping details you have been looking for in a world globe at the price you want.
This 24" inflatable writable globe has a white background with outlined countries. The ball may be used over and over again with a wet erase marker (not included) to test your students geography skills.
This accurate relief model features a view of the earth?s interior and atmosphere in the same scale. The 12-inch diameter plastic globe, mounted in a cradle base, crust, mantle, and inner and outer cores. Used as a relief globe, this White model can be used for many classroom activities. The removable disk also portrays the atmosphere, temp, air densities, distance and problems of space travel. Size 14" x 14".
Teaches basic map reading: how to determine location, elevation and understand scales and symbols. Each package includes a plastic terrain model with 5 corresponding stacking contour sheets, 5 unprinted stacking contour sheets for projects, a wall map of the relief model with 50 student project maps, and a grease pencil. All plastics may be marked and erased. Study Guide.
Series of eight plastic raised relief models. Relates typical surface formations to subsurface structures that are shown as graphic cross sections on each model. Helps students to better understand the development of the landscape and the factor and force influencing the development. Geologic features are numbered and keyed to a comprehensive study guide. When combined, the 8 individual models form a continuous 8-foot long graphic landscape and landform reference. Each model is 12" x 15", printed in full color on durable plastic, thermo-formed and reinforced with rigid foam.
How does a glacier work? This model will give students the opportunity to observe the effects of glacial movement without having to endure glacial time. First model depicts a glacier in its active stage, while the second model shows post-glacial conditions. Using the second model, students can create their own glacier using ice and sand to observe glacial melting and deposition of glacial till. Each model is 18" x 24", formed in high impact plastic. Teacher's guide included. Set of 2.

Used to simulate effect of earth's rotation on winds, ocean currents or unattached objects such as rockets. As sphere is launched across surface of base, when it is static, sphere traces a straight line. As turntable is put in motion, centrifugal force launches the sphere which, though traveling in a straight line, leaves a curved trace on rotating surface. Size of curve is in direct ratio to speed of rotation. Each kit includes one 14" diam. base (with outer retaining trough) mounted on a turntable, and featuring a reusable "magic slate" type erasable trace recording surface, removable launcher, 5/8" diameter steel spheres.

Graphic representation of the rock beds and real rock samples. Includes comprehensive Teacher's Guide which contains lab activities, color overhead transparency, blackline reproduction master, and 20 rock and sediment specimens. Transparent model cover and marking pen also included. Grades 5-12.
