We are studying erosion and deposition. As material is weathered into smaller pieces or sanded smooth by wind and water, these smaller particles are carried away through several means.

We are also beginning to plan our science fair project. Students will be turning these topics in on Thursday and will then be moving forward with a hypothesis and experiment plan.
