Deserts & Wind

We completed the notes on Deserts and Wind today. Students learned how sand dunes are formed and their six characteristic shapes. We also reviewed and compared various landforms created by glaciers with those in deserts. Class was concluded early so the drawings that were to be done in class will be done tomorrow. Homework was to draw, color, and label the six shapes of dunes on a sheet of paper. They were also to have the descriptions of the dunes. Various colors were given to be used in drawing the different dunes. The dune drawings are due tomorrow. They will have a Vocabulary Test on "Glaciers, Deserts, and Wind" on Thursday and the Chapter Test on Friday.
