Changes to Earth's Surface

NameDate

  1. Earth event: wind blows loose sand into small dunes. Is this a fast or slow surface change?

    • fast change
    • only a weather report
    • no surface change
    • slow change

  2. What most directly causes this surface change: a flood spreads mud across a field?

    • classroom light
    • the name of the town
    • flood water
    • the color of the soil

  3. Which observation is evidence for the change in "a flood spreads mud across a field"?

    • the field has a name
    • water covers the field in one storm
    • the student guessed first
    • the hill has a pretty view

  4. Which solution could help with this surface-change problem: waves break pieces from a sandy shore?

    • add loose soil to every slope
    • add plants or barriers that reduce erosion
    • ignore all evidence
    • make the wind stronger

  5. Which sequence best represents a surface change investigation?

    • name the map -> ignore the land -> finish
    • predict first -> refuse data -> change the question
    • observe the surface -> identify the cause -> plan a response
    • choose a favorite rock -> stop observing -> guess

  6. Earth event: a flood spreads mud across a field. Is this a fast or slow surface change?

    • fast change
    • slow change
    • no surface change
    • only a weather report

  7. What most directly causes this surface change: wind blows loose sand into small dunes?

    • classroom light
    • wind
    • the name of the town
    • a paper map

  8. Which observation is evidence for the change in "waves break pieces from a sandy shore"?

    • the field has a name
    • the student guessed first
    • the shoreline moves back over time
    • the hill has a pretty view

  9. Which solution could help with this surface-change problem: a landslide moves soil down a hill after heavy rain?

    • make the wind stronger
    • add loose soil to every slope
    • remove every observation
    • keep people away from the slide area

  10. Which sequence best represents a surface change investigation?

    • choose a favorite rock -> stop observing -> guess
    • observe the surface -> identify the cause -> plan a response
    • predict first -> refuse data -> change the question
    • erase the evidence -> copy the answer -> stop
