B.   Summarize the processes that shape Earth’s surface and       describe evidence of those processes.

1.   Describe how wind, water and ice shape and reshape Earth’s land       surface by eroding rock and soil in some areas and depositing       them in other areas producing characteristic landforms (e.g.,       dunes, deltas, glacial moraines).

2.   Identify and describe how freezing, thawing and plant growth       reshape the land surface by causing weathering of rock.

3.   Describe evidence of changes on Earth’s surface in terms of slow       processes (e.g., erosion, weathering, mountain building,       deposition) and rapid processes (e.g., volcanic eruptions,       earthquakes, and slides).

  

D.   Analyze weather and changes that occur over a period of time.

4.   Explain that air surrounds us, takes up space, moves around us       as wind, and may be measured using barometric pressure.

5.   Identify how water exists in the air in different forms (e.g., in       clouds, fog, rain, snow and hail).

6.   Investigate how water changes from one state to another (e.g.,       freezing, melting, condensation, evaporation) and passes through       the water cycle.

7.   Describe weather by measurable quantities such as temperature,       wind direction, wind speed, precipitation, and barometric pressure.

8.   Record local weather information on a calendar or map and       describe changes over a period of time (e.g., barometric pressure,       temperature, precipitation symbols, cloud conditions).

9.   Trace how weather patterns generally move from west to east in       the United States.

10.  Describe the weather which accompanies cumulus,       cumulonimbus, cirrus and stratus clouds.
