In this multi-station lab, learners conduct a series of experiments to explore the processes and effects of weathering and erosion.

In this activity (page 13 of the PDF), learners discover how weathering and erosion change the Earth’s surface.

In this earth science activity, learners conduct a series of short experiments to explore how rocks change.

In this activity (on pages 12-15), learners make a crater model and test the effects of weather (rain) on its surface.

In this activity (located on pages 9-14 of PDF), learners visit a cemetery to examine the distinguishing characteristics of rock weathering.

In this activity, learners will model the mechanical weathering and erosion of rocks in a stream or river.

In this activity, learners review and discuss weathering, erosion and mass wasting, to gain a stronger understanding of how Hickory Run’s Boulder Field was formed after the Laurentide Continental Glac

In this activity, learners use crayons to draw conclusions about rocks and the rock cycle.

In this activity, learners investigate soil conditions by creating a soil map. Learners record soil characteristics and compare the conditions of soil in different grid sections.

In this activity, learners thread colored beads onto string. Each beach represent a process of the water cycle.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

Learners build models of sinkholes to gain an intuitive knowledge of their physical aspects.

In this activity, learners gain knowledge about how carbon moves through all four of the Earth’s major spheres (biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere), and understand how humans influenc

In this activity, learners model erosion using a clear shoebox and sand or soil.

In this activity, learners observe mixtures of sand samples glued to note cards, and consider how sand can differ in size, shape, and color, and where it comes from.

In this activity, learners will learn how igneous rock, metamorphic rock, and sedimentary rock are formed as part of the rock cycle and that the same forces that produce/change rocks also produce/chan

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

In this on site "field trip" activity (located on pages 6-9 of PDF), learners get hands-on experience identifying building materials by playing "Building Bingo".
