Weathering Activity V: 1 Create the following table on page 120 of your INB. 120 Prediction Description Profile Drawing Topographic Map Wind will cause… Weathering by wind caused… A light rain will cause… Weathering by light rain caused… A flood will cause… Weathering by a flood caused…

Weathering Activity V: 1 Using the sand in the plastic container, make a mountain. Make predictions about how wind, light rain, and a flood will change the shape of the mountain.- ALL Using the straws at the tables, blow air onto the sand mountain to demonstrate wind erosion. Draw a picture of the sand mountain after wind erosion and make observations about how the mountain has changed.- ALL Using the pipette, model a light rain on the sand mountain. Draw a picture of the sand mountain after rain erosion and make observations about how the mountain has changed.- ALL Pour ¼ cup of water on the sand mountain to model a flood or a river rushing through an area. Draw a picture of the sand mountain after the flooding and make observations about how the mountain has changed.- ALL
