Glaciers
Today's lesson plan will be about glaciers! We will begin by reading two passages about glaciers, their formation, and their types. Next, as a class we will explore the PhET interactive about glacier formation. Then, students will work in pairs to complete a glacier worksheet, where they can explore the internet to see glaciers around the world. Finally, we will end with a video about glaciation.
