Engage Students in an Interactive & Immersive Earth Science Challenge!

Help students explore the fascinating processes of erosion with this engaging sorting activity!

By matching erosion processes, their causes, and real-world examples, students will deepen their understanding of how the Earth’s surface is shaped over time, and discover the powerful forces that constantly change our planet.

What’s Included:
60 Cards in Total – Each of the 20 erosion sorting sets includes:
20 Process Cards – Describes key erosion processes like wind, water, and ice erosion.
20 Cause Cards – Identifies the environmental forces that drive each process.
20 Example Cards – Shows real-world examples of where each erosion process occurs.
Blank Cards – Can be used for student-created erosion sets or as a foundation for independent research tasks.

How It Works: Students will match each process card with its corresponding cause and example to form complete sets! Through discussion and reasoning, they’ll uncover how erosion shapes landscapes and the environment.

The blank cards provide an opportunity for students to research and introduce additional erosion processes, deepening their engagement with Earth science topics.

Best For: Earth Science, Geography, and Environmental Science Units
