Title-
|
|
|
Background-
|
Steeper slopes results in faster-flowing water, which has more energy and can carry larger loads of material, increasing the amount of erosion and deposition.
Vocabulary: geologic, millions, slope, floods, erosion, and alluvial fan |
| |
|
Expected Outcome Of This Lesson Plan-
|
1. To get students to conduct investigations and build explanations: observing, communicating. comparing, organizing, and relating.
|
| |
|
Teacher Objectives-
|
1. Investigate how the slope of land affects erosion and deposition.
2. Use scientific thinking process to conduct investigations
3. Investigate how rate of flow effects erosion deposition. |

Teaching Methods-
|
|
1. Lesson Introduction-
1. The steepness of the slope of the earth's surface affects the amount of erosion and deposition by a stream.
2. The quantity of water flowing through a stream channel affects the amount of erosion and deposition
3. Human can make changes to streams and stream channels that affect the amount of erosion and deposition. |
