1. Root wedging – roots break up rocks
2. Frost Wedging - ice breaks up rocks
3. Thermal expansion – heat causes rocks to expand and break
1. On your Wonderland, draw a big M next to each example of mechanical weathering and draw a big C next to each example of chemical weathering.
2. You are the mayor of a new city called Weathering Wonderland.
- EXPLAIN three ways that weathering harms your city.
