• "Surface Processes" Unit
     
    In this unit, learners will gain an understanding of how the Earth is always changing through different forces in the environment. Students will learn about weathering & soils, erosion & deposition, running water, glaciers, and mass movement, wind, & waves. 
     
    In this unit, learners will be graded on numerous parts:
    (1) Note & Work Packet
    (2) "Do Now"/Warm-Up Activities Classwork
    (3) "Set 1 - Relationship of Transported Particle Size to Water Velocity" Homework
    (4) Mass Movements Research Activity
    (5) Castle Learning Questions
    (6) Quiz
     
    The "Note & Work Packet", "Do Now" Activities, "Homework", and "Quiz" will be provided by Mrs. Robinson in class. 
    The "Unit Presentation," "Mass Movements Research Activity," and "Castle Learning Questions" will be provided under the "Resources" section below or online.
