1 Warm Up If you could live on 10 acres of land in any location in the world where would you live? Describe the climate zone, vegetation zone, and landforms surrounding you. Your desired location can be a location that actually exists or one that you create with your imagination. Make it be realistic though, please. Why is this your dream environment?

2 LANDFORMS!

3 Earth Science Review!

4 Internal Forces! Parts of the earth:

5 Internal Forces: Plate Tectonics: Earth’s crust is made up of ‘tectonic plates.’ Plate movement creates new crust, landforms, earthquakes and volcanoes. Internal forces can create new landforms. For Example: Convergent boundaries create mountains and Divergent can create rift valleys. Transform boundaries cause earthquakes & volcanoes.

7 External Forces: Forces like erosion and weathering shape and reshape land and water forms.

8 External forces: Weathering works by breaking rock down at earth’s surface: wind, water, ice and living things cause weathering. Erosion works by breaking rock, sand, and soil into smaller pieces and carrying it away. Deposition is when the rock particles, sand, or soil are dropped into a new location.
