Today we put all our learning about erosion into hands-on experiments! Today we tried our hand at creating erosion.  We built some landforms in sand (mountains, hills, plateaus, valleys...) and then we saw the effects of wind erosion on those landforms.  We also found out how water can change the earth.  Again, we built some landforms in sand, and then it "rained" down on our land and we saw how the sand moved with the...

After our salt dough landforms dried, we painted them. It was fun to paint the hills... ...put lava on our volcanos... ...paint our plateaus... ...and make mountains! Then we put our landforms on our maps! We now had examples of glaciers, gulfs, oceans... ...volcanos, hills, mountains... ...islands, bays, plateaus... ...valleys, lakes and rivers. We loved this hands-on science project that really helped...
