Kamiakin Middle School, Kirkland, Washington Mrs. K. Dougherty, Math and Science, 6th grade classes Arts and Sciences - The geological process of sedimentation "Making sediments and drawing them as we learn about the process of sedimentation" Four creative sessions with Ms. Dougherty and her 64 6th graders! The students ran a sedimentation experiment over the course of 2 weeks. We discussed sedimentation as one of the processes in the context of interactions between the atmosphere, the geosphere, the hydrosphere and the biosphere. After setting-up the experiment, students took time to draw it to compare their final results to the initial conditions that they had chosen. They made a series of observations before, during, and after they created sediments in a bottle. And they used their observations to fuel a discussion and proposed hypotheses that could explain their results. Finally, the whole group compared their results and hypotheses to natural examples of sediment deposits in various, natural settings - lake deposits, ocean deposits and river deposits. |
