✅ Please ensure you have YouTube access before purchasing this Unit. Lesson 8: Making a Claim: Show What You Know About Geoscience Processes that Lesson 7: What Geoscience Processes Helped to Create These Rock Formations? Lesson 6: Underground Landforms: Caves and Sinkholes

Lesson 3: What Are Geoscience Processes? Modeling with a Stream Table Lesson 1: Geoscience Processes - Phenomenon Review Lesson: Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition Included are a standards poster, photos and posters for stimulating discussion, four reading passages, three investigations, links to videos, and essential vocabulary cards. They will also learn about how other geoscience processes change the Earth's surface over varying time and spatial scales. With these NGSS lesson plans, students will review weathering, erosion, and deposition.
