Area of Focus: Weathering Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Weathering - Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
The breaking of rock into smaller pieces. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Demonstration. Mechanical Weathering. Students to observe rocks before placed in can. Teacher places several jagged small rocks into a large metal can with a lid. The can should travel around the room, each student should shake it forcefully for 5 seconds. Teacher will open the can and pour the contents out onto white paper. How have the rocks changed?

Ice/Frost Wedging: Water enters cracks in the rocks, freezes, expands and breaks rocks. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
Creates cracks and holds which you can use to rock climb. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
