Landforms
5.3-1 Explain how natural processes (including
weathering, erosion, deposition, landslides,
volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and floods)
affect Earths oceans and land in constructive
and destructive ways.

You have been given the task of discovering as
much information as you can on landforms. Read
through your worksheet and usethis power point
to help youlocate as much information as you can
on landslides.

Deposition

• Deposition is the dropping or depositing, of
  sediments by water, wind, or ice. Click the
  picture to learn more about deposition.

Volcanoes

• Volcanoes are mountains with opening in Earths
  crust through which magma, gases and ash reach
  Earths surface. Click on the picture below to

Earthquakes are the sudden shock or rolling of
the Earths surface. What causes this sudden
shake you might ask. Click the word EARTHQUAKE

Now that you are experts on landforms, write a
brief summary of everything youve learned about
landforms. Be sure to include information about
weathering and erosion, and the destructive and
constructive forces. Job Well Done!
