Landforms

Explain how natural processes (including weathering, erosion, deposition, landslides, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and floods) affect Earth’s oceans and land in constructive and destructive ways.

LandformsLandforms are all around us.

Click on the picture to find out what is a landform and

some examples.

Weathering & Erosion

Weathering and erosion work together as destructive natural forces. Click on the cloud to learn more about

weathering and erosion.

Pictures of Erosion & Weathering

Wind and rain can really erode our Earth. Take a look a some pictures that show erosion and weathering.

DepositionDeposition is the dropping or depositing, of

sediments by water, wind, or ice. Click the picture to learn more about deposition.

Volcanoes are mountains with opening in Earth’s crust through which magma, gases and ash reach Earth’s surface. Click on the

picture below to watch a volcano erupt.

Now that you are experts on landforms, write a brief

summary of everything you’ve learned about landforms. Be sure to include information

about weathering and erosion, and the destructive and

constructive forces. Job Well Done!
