Weathering and Erosion Bottle Model and Inquiry Project
by Brittany Robertson
Students will build a model of a riverbank inside of a liter bottle. They will use different materials to improve the riverbank and lessen the erosion. Students will research and investigate what materials, both manmade and natural would improve the banks of the river. Students will also research what causes riverbank erosion in the wild.
