“Weathering Erosion Deposition”
Under the title, add the standard for this lesson:
SC.6.E.6.1 Describe and give examples of ways in which Earth's surface is built up and torn down by physical and chemical weathering, erosion, and deposition.
Engage-Beach Sand
Three friends were walking along a beach in New England. They looked closely at the sand and noticed it was made up of tiny particles of rock. They had different ideas about where the sand came from. Which friend do you agree with and why? Explain your thinking about how the sand formed and ended up on the beach.
INFO
Look at the images, make observations about the image and infer what the "story" may be. What things in the images were most helpful in telling the "story" of what may have happened to the surface of the Earth?
