Standard: Show Content Tip
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.


Holistic Rating: Moderate coverage of this standard.
Pages A6-A13, A16-A22, A28-A31 and C78-C91 provide moderate coverage of this standard.

Aspects that help student learning:
Activities, illustrations, and text, provide in-depth coverage of slow processes, such as weathering, erosion, and grinding by glaciers.


Aspects that do not help student learning:
Text provides limited coverage with respect to rapid processes. While volcanoes and earthquakes are mentioned, tectonic activities are presented mostly from the perspective covering long periods of time.
