Uncover the powerful forces that reshape our world with the Weathering, Erosion & Deposition Unit! This comprehensive, low-prep, two-week unit invites students to explore the essential question: “What are the processes that reshape our Earth?”
Through engaging lessons, hands-on activities, and meaningful assessments, students dive into the interconnected processes that shape Earth’s surface—weathering, erosion, and deposition. This unit is designed to foster critical thinking, spark curiosity, and build a strong foundation in Earth science concepts.
? Investigate Weathering – Examine how rocks break down through mechanical and chemical weathering.
? Explore Erosion – Discover how wind, water, ice, and gravity transport sediments across Earth’s surface.
? Understand Deposition – Learn how these materials settle and reshape landscapes over time.
? Make Connections – Analyze how these processes work together to continuously transform the planet.
✅ Low-Prep, High-Impact – Includes everything you need to teach a thorough, engaging unit with minimal prep time.
? Built for Middle & High School – Scaffolded for various ability levels, with visually engaging presentations and student-friendly activities.
? Aligned & Organized – Every resource supports your Earth science standards and keeps learning on track with a built-in pacing guide.
? Teacher Tip: Use the Sugar Cube Weathering Lab as a hands-on hook at the start of the unit—or as a review before the final quiz—to boost engagement and deepen understanding!
This unit is your go-to toolkit for helping students make sense of the ever-changing Earth beneath their feet. Let me know if you’d like a matching test, project, or review game to pair with it!
