Fold Mountains

Our class is doing a study of mountains. Here we are showing how fold mountains like the Rockies, the Andes, or the Himalayas are formed. Areas of the Earth's crust called plates float about on the molten magma at the core of the World. When two plates collide, there are fold mountains formed. We are demonstrating this with a stiff sheet.
