Grade 5: January 20-31st

We are starting a new unit on landforms! Students will learn various landforms in mountain, plains, ocean, and desert regions and will then make a model of their region's landforms in groups. Any materials that would help construct models of landforms is appreciated, especially clay. We will investigate many real life examples of landforms and how they were created. This will lead into river systems and how they weather and erode the land, as well as topography and contour lines of mountains, canyons, and hills.
