Concept Statement: Show Concept Overview
5 Waves, wind, water, and ice shape and reshape Earth's land surface.
Over-All Rating: In-Depth coverage of this concept.
 |
Text includes lots of extraneous earth science content, particularly in Unit B Chapters 1 and 3. |
Features that do not help student learning:
Text only provides moderate coverage of standard 5a because it does not clearly distinguish between slow and rapid processes.
Ratings for Standards - Harcourt:
| 5 Waves, wind, water, and ice shape and reshape Earth's land surface. |
In-Depth |
|
| 5a Students know some changes in the earth are due to slow processes, such as erosion, and some changes are due to rapid processes, such as landslides, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes. |
Moderate |
|
| 5b Students know natural processes, including freezing and thawing and the growth of roots, cause rocks to break down into smaller pieces. |
In-Depth |
|
| 5c Students know moving water erodes landforms, reshaping the land by taking it away from some places and depositing it as pebbles, sand, silt, and mud in other places (weathering, transport, and deposition). |
