Editor’s Roundtable: Sculpting the Earth’s surface

Science Scope—October 2008

Our students need to know about the structure of the Earth and about the geological processes that shape its surface—both the long-term and the everyday processes, the abrupt shifts of faults, the sustained movements of tectonic plates, and slow uplift of mountains. Therefore, this issue of Science Scope focuses on Earth processes. Use this collection of activities to awaken your students to the factors that shape the continents and the hills, valleys, rivers, fields, lakes, and oceans around them.
