This hands-on lesson digs deeper into the study of weathering and erosion. It should be taught after students have an understanding of the sun’s energy and some of the ways it impacts the Earth. The

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

In this lesson students model a fast change to Earth's surface by creating a landslide and a slow change to Earth's surface by simulating coastal erosion.

In this lesson, students will work in groups to design a model that will demonstrate the best erosion techniques for the model of a road experiencing flooding or heavy rainfall. Students will be given

This interactive 4th-grade lesson plan focuses on erosion and weathering, key concepts in understanding Earth's geology. In "Dynamic Earth," students use an interactive simulation to explore how

Explore Coal Mine Canyon's wonders! Watch a documentary, read about geology, draw the canyon, and use tech to learn about geological layers. Fun, interactive learning awaits!

By creating a stop motion animation, students will gain a deeper understanding of how landforms develop, are weathered, and erode. This is an engaging way to help infer the history of the current

During this lesson students will explore the concept of erosion. Using a Stream Table, students will have the opportunity to discuss theories with their classmates, observe erosion, draw a model and
