Throughout this unit, I have learned a lot about Erosion. Now I know all about it! At the beginning of this unit, I had no idea what Erosion even was. Now
I have learned beyond the basics. I am so glad that I learned about Erosion because
ESSENTIAL QUESTION: 1. Why does our Earth's surface look the way it does?
ANSWER:1. The earth's surface looks the way it does because of EROSION, water and rocks and also just landforms,earthquakes, tsunami's and basically all NATURAL Disasters! In this unit, I learned a lot about how erosion is caused, and how it is caused and what makes it the way it is. I have always wondered how earthquakes happened and just what makes an earthquake and every other natural disaster, a BIG DISASTER!! Now... I KNOW... YAYAYYAYAAY
:) I have learned about deppsosition aswell. Especially in our Wadi field trip! I know that the Wadi was a big ocean full of sea animals. We saw some fossels aswell in the wadi. They were about one-million years old! It was amazing to learn what happens to animals when they dry out or get depposited. The fossel I saw was all dried up and stiff as if someone super glued it to sand. It was a weird shape which was unique. We learned that fossels look the way they do because they were under water and today they are not.
Anyway, I learned alot about that. I learned that water is more powerful than air aswell which helped my understanding alot especially in the experiment where we used the straw and wind blaster. It was one of my favorite science units! I learned alot. Not only education related but a life lesson. Now when i walk around I know what it is made from.
