EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A reading and drawing activity designed to help students identify the processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition. Designed for middle and upper years students.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition through reading and diagrams.
  • Identify the appropriate process occurring in a given scenario.
  • Draw clear, labelled diagrams to represent each process.

How the Activity Works:

Students read the provided text boxes that describe different examples of weathering, erosion, and deposition. They then identify which process is occurring in each scenario. After this, they draw a corresponding diagram to visually represent each process, ensuring to label the diagrams clearly. The activity strengthens understanding by combining reading, analysis, and creative diagramming to consolidate learning.
