Some Facts about Continental Drift

• Earth's crust is not a single continuous layer{yeah really}
• It is made up of a number of gigantic pieces like a huge jigsaw puzzle{really huge}
• Each piece is called a crustal plate{geographic students know very well}
• Currents of molten rock rise up through the mantle like boiling water in saucepan{don't worry if you didn't understand ,you may not have to give test on it}
• These form convection cells that drive the movement of the plates so they move continuously moving away or towards each other.{this is continental drift}
