  • Watch Weathering and Erosion: Crash Course Kids

  • Talk about:

    • How does this connect to the weathering you found in your neighborhood?

    • How does this connect with the weathering you observed in your tray investigation?

    • What do you wonder about this? Do you have any further questions?
