Your students can learn all about the scientific process of weathering with this engaging presentation.
It covers mechanical weathering (abrasion, frost wedging, thermal stress) and chemical weathering (oxidation, hydrolysis, carbonation) with clear explanations and eye-catching visuals.
Students will explore how weathering breaks down rocks, from the formation of stalactites to the oxidation of iron-rich rocks.
This resource is part of our Year 5 Earth and Space Sciences Unit. It can be used when studying topics such as rock weathering, erosion and landform development.
