These have been updated to the current GSE standards for 2017. These were created to display in my room on a bulletin board. I put them in sheet protectors and put silver rings through the holes. This way, they can be flipped weekly or daily to display the necessary standard. Use them as you wish ... get creative!

This is an activity that goes along with the GA third grade standard on understanding and observing fossils. The preview only has the observation sheet but the actual download has a five day lesson plan attached!

We placed sand into disposable baking pans (usually $1.00 or so). I poured the sand into a mountain shape and each day we created a different type of erosion. We used ice cubes on top for glacial, a spray bottle for a rain effect and then straws to create wind erosion. The students observe before and after
