How Glaciers Modify The Landscape?

4.5 rating based on 105 ratings

Glaciers also change landscape by sanding rocks that are attached to the base of a glacier’s bedrock. Scraping is evident in grooves on rock surfaces called glacial striations; the sand and silt left behind is called till. In this lesson, students will make a model of a glacier and discover how a glacier moves rocks and soil.

This resource is explicitly designed to build towards this science and engineering practice. In this lesson, students conduct an investigation to explain how glaciers change the land. Have the students make predictions and record them in their journals. Allow students to share their thinking and record initial thoughts before investigating.
