Help young geologists discover what lies beneath their feet with this hands-on Earth layers labeling worksheet, a printable PDF designed for ages 6 to 9 that makes complex geology concepts accessible and engaging. Three carefully designed pages guide children through Earth's structure from the solid crust we walk on down to the molten core at the planet's center, building scientific vocabulary and spatial understanding along the way.

📦 What's Included

  • 3 pages total featuring Earth's internal structure
  • 1 labeled diagram showing all layers with clear vocabulary
  • 1 fill-in-the-blank worksheet for independent practice
  • 1 additional labeling activity for reinforcement
  • Clear cross-section illustration of Earth's layers
  • Layers featured: crust, mantle, outer core, inner core

💡 Learning Benefits

  • Build geology vocabulary and Earth science understanding
  • Develop spatial reasoning by visualizing Earth's interior structure
  • Practice handwriting and spelling through labeling activities
  • Understand how Earth's layers support life on the surface
  • Prepare for more advanced geology and plate tectonics studies
  • Support visual learners with clear cross-section diagrams

🎯 How to Use

  • Start with the labeled diagram to introduce Earth's layer names
  • Discuss the characteristics of each layer (solid, liquid, temperature, composition)
  • Children complete the fill-in-the-blank worksheet independently
  • Use as a follow-up to hands-on activities like making Earth layer models with clay
  • Perfect for geology units, Earth science lessons, or planet studies
  • Pair with real geological samples or videos of volcanic activity for deeper learning

🪨 Where This Fits in Earth Science Education

Understanding Earth's layers is foundational for later studies in geology, plate tectonics, volcanoes, earthquakes, and natural resource formation. This worksheet provides the essential vocabulary and visual framework that children need before exploring more complex geological concepts.

🌎 Perfect for Cosmic Education

In Montessori's cosmic education curriculum, children learn how Earth's structure supports all life on the surface. These worksheets help them understand that the ground beneath their feet is part of a complex, dynamic planetary system that has been forming for billions of years.
