Eroding Stream Table Experiemnts- Science with the 6th graders
















We have had a lot of fun learning to observe landforms as they are eroded throughout our stream table experiments.




Mountains, valleys, canyons, deltas, and many more are found in our experiments. We can see the strength a drop of water has on a dry surface of clay and sand. Imagine what it could do in a rain storm, a monsoon, or huricane.

















We also have studied the sequence of events as the landforms are created and destroyed by the force of water.
