Erosion and Deposition

Group "WSU" and their attempt to recreate the Colorado Plateau in hopes of finding out how the Grand Canyon was formed. What landforms do you notice?

This video gives you a clear picture of how EROSION works.

"How was the Grand Canyon formed?" Students were recently asked this question as it relates to our focus on Landforms. Here are some of their original predictions:

*Natural disaster   
*Formed by a river
*Meteor                
*Mudslide
*Wind                   
*Sun/Heat/Time
*Earthquakes         
*River/evaporation
*Earth                    
*Tornado

Were any of the predictions correct? How did it actually form? What landforms were created as a result of its formation?
