Erosion and Deposition & Plate Tectonics: Week 4
Please Do These Lessons...
Day 1
The Science and Engineering Practice of Planning and Carrying Out Investigations
Watch the Bozeman Science video " Planning and Carrying out Investigations"
Think about a question that you have about something in and around your home.
If you can, focus on a question that relates to animal and plant interactions.
How could you design an experiment that would answer that question?
Day 2
What can I learn about patterns of weathering, erosion, and/or deposition? Day 1
View these videos -
Learn more about a weathering, erosion and deposition by researching it on your own.
Use this Weathering, Erosion and Deposition Investigation sheet as a guide, if you like.
Additional Resources:
This NASA website that has satellite images from around the world could be a good resource to get your started - World of Change
NASA images of erosion - includes images of erosion on other planets
HiRise - captioned images of Mars surface -taken from space many show erosion
Day 3
What can I learn about patterns of weathering, erosion, and/or deposition? Day 2
Continue with your Weathering, Erosion and Deposition Project Day 2.
If you need additional resources for your investigation, you can view these videos:
Day 4
What can I learn about patterns of weathering, erosion, and/or deposition? Day 3
Continue with your Weathering, Erosion and Deposition Project Day 3.
Day 5
Reflection
What did you learn these last two weeks about how scientists and you plan and carry out investigations?
Use this Graphic Organizer to help organize one experiment on weathering, erosion and/or deposition that you could perform.
Or- Share your Erosion and Deposition Project with your teacher or a family member.
