    The document provides instructions for a classroom activity where students assemble a jigsaw puzzle of the supercontinent Pangaea and label it with four pieces of geological evidence that support the theory of continental drift: 1) matching coastlines of present-day continents; 2) matching fossil distributions; 3) mountain ranges formed by continental collisions; 4) matching paleoclimate zones across continents. Students are asked to cut out puzzle pieces, assemble Pangaea on paper, and transfer the four evidence labels to the map along with a key.
