8th Grade Geography: Landform Processes

The document outlines Mr. Salber's 8th grade world geography curriculum for the week of August 8-14, 2021. Each day focuses on identifying the physical processes that build up and wear down the land to create landforms. Students will learn about plate tectonics, including how convection currents cause plates to move and interact at boundaries. They will identify fault lines and locations, and explain how they influence landforms. Assessment includes quizzes, sketching of landform formations, and identifying crust compositions from labeled diagrams. The goals are for students to categorize geographic organization and understand how physical and human processes shape the environment.
