Lesson 7.2.4 weathering, erosion, deposition review

On the next slide you will be reading a passage with your classmates. In the passage you want to find these items;
1. the definition of erosion, weathering, deposition
2. An example of erosion, weathering, deposition

• ​Each sphere of the world plays an important role in helping sustain life.

• 70% of the Earth is covered by water.

• Geosphere consists of land, rocks, and minerals.

• Geosphere is impacted by nature and humans.

• Geologists study our Earth to predict the future and explain current activity on Earth.

Geologist Investigation

Today you will be working as a Geologist to investigate the origin of landforms around the world. You will work to sort the landforms according to the formation methods by which they were created and/or how they are still being changed.

You will work in Breakout rooms with a partner or independently to complete the activity. When time is up, we will discuss what you discovered!

What formations did you find most interesting? Did anything really stick out to you?

• landform formation processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition

• applied what you learned and identified examples for each type of landform formation

Look at the photo of the Grand Canyon in Arizona. In the chat, write which landform formation process you think had the BIGGEST impact on forming the canyon!

Weathering

Wind Erosion

Water Erosion

Deposition

If you get it right you will get an extra credit point on the project/test
