Teaching
Read together
pp.154-158. Learn
the types of
volcanoes and what
the effects are on
the surroundings.
Complete a checkup
on volcano
vocabulary. Write
the EQ and explain
in Science

EQ and answer.
Show a tsunami
clip. Have a group
to work with teacher
on vocabulary from
yesterday’s voc.
Checkup data.
Read text pp.176181. Write the
definitions for
weathering, erosion
and deposition in
notebooks and draw
an example for
each.
Read article on How
water changes
Earth, and answer
the questions.
Watch the
Scholastic study
jams on these
concepts.(erosion,
weathering, and
deposition) Glue
pictures of each in
notebooks and label
them correctly.

Discuss the three
main agents of
erosion and
weathering and fill
in the graphic
organizer.
