How the Grand Canyon was Formed! Really?!
The TISA 5th graders have begun learning about landforms. This week our scientists investigated water flow over earth materials in a stream table. They observed the processes of erosion, deposition, and stream flow. These processes relate to the processes that created the Grand Canyon!Our 5th grade scientists use scientific thinking processes to conduct investigations and build explanations using: observing, communicating, comparing, organizing, and relating! Wow! that's alot of learning!
