They represent the tectonic plates — the rigid lithosphere (crust plus uppermost mantle) that floats and moves on the softer asthenosphere.
If you move the paper pieces relative to each other you can model the three types of plate boundaries:
- move apart = divergent (mid‑ocean ridges, rift zones)
- move together = convergent (mountain building, subduction)
- slide past = transform (strike‑slip faults)
If you meant something else (a photo or a specific classroom activity), upload or describe it and I’ll be more specific.
