Over the past two weeks, we have been learning about erosion and deposition. To help the students visualize this concept, they have been building stream-tables. Through inquiry, students have learned that erosion and deposition slowly change the shape of our Earth, unless flood conditions are introduced. When students built a stream-table and introduced flood conditions, they saw that the shape of our Earth rapidly changes.
Today the students posed an investigation question, predicted what would happen, designed their stream-table to help them to investigate the question. After designing the table, the kids ran water through their stream-tables and recorded their results that answer the investigation question they made up. Below you will find picture of the different stream table setups.
