Erosion and weathering

Science · Earth's Systems · procedural

Make observations and measurements to provide evidence of the effects of weathering or the rate of erosion by water, ice, wind, or vegetation

What mastery looks like

  • Define weathering (breaking down of rock in place) and erosion (movement of broken rock/soil)
  • Describe the effects of at least three agents of weathering/erosion: water, ice, wind, vegetation
  • Provide evidence from observations showing how weathering or erosion has changed a landscape

Check your understanding

Can Erosion and weathering look at a crumbling cliff or a river bank and explain how water, wind, or ice has slowly worn away the rock or soil over time?
