Weathering and Erosion
Lesson Outline
We watched a video on Weathering and Erosion on Earth’s surface. Then we simulated what would happen if we had an earthquake. Then we conducted an experiment where we placed chalk in a cup and simulated wind and rain weathering on rocks.

Unit 2 Properties of Materials Module: Changes to Materials
Lesson Outline
We learned to categorize changes to materials as either physical or chemical. A physical change changes the form or state of matter but not the material or molecular structure. No new substance is formed. In a chemical change the original substance turns into a new substance with new properties characterized by an energy change due to the release or absorption of heat. We proceeded to identify actions depicting physical and chemical changes. We concluded with an experiment where we created a chemical reaction when we created elephant toothpaste.

Unit 1 Land and Water Module: Earth’s Landscape
Lesson Outline
Science Enrichment – We completed an experiment to investigate clouds. We floated shaving cream on an atmosphere of water. Then we added drops of food coloring to simulate when clouds are saturated. The dense coloring became precipitation. Next, we took a quiz on the water cycle.
