Creating Landforms by Wind, Water & Ice
I recognize how landforms such as deltas, canyons, and sand dunes are the result of changes to Earth’s surface by wind, water, and ice .

Deltas
V-Shaped Valleys

Formation of
Sedimentary Rocks & Fossil Fuels
I can explore the processes that led to the formation of sedimentary rocks and fossil fuels. I can also identify alternative energy resources such as wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal, and biofuels.
