1 Soil Composition Bedrock Sub Soil Top Soil Parent Material Organic Layer

2 What is EROSION?? What is SOIL erosion??

3 There are two different ways soil can be eroded By Water ‘gully erosion’ and ‘sheet erosion’ By Wind

4 Use the text book page 180 to write a definition of these words: 1.Soil erosion 2.Sheet erosion 3.Gully erosion 4.Wind erosion

10 Go Outside!! Although Grand Bahama does not see much wind erosion, you can identify ‘sheet’ and ‘gully’ erosion by water on our campus… Identify two areas on our campus… Draw a sketch of each with labels

11 Finish in Class or for Homework 1.List 5 human causes of soil erosion using your textbook in your own words (pg.180-181)
