Students will access, generate, process, and transfer information, using appropriate technologies.

Students will understand the relationships and common themes that connect mathematics, science, and technology and apply the themes to these and other areas of learning.

Students will apply the knowledge and thinking skills of mathematics, science, and technology to address real-life problems and make informed decisions.

Landforms are the result of the interaction of tectonic forces and the processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition.

Natural agents of erosion, generally driven by gravity, remove, transport, and deposit weathered rock particles. Each agent of erosion produces distinctive changes in the material that it transports and creates characteristic surface features and land- scapes. In certain erosional situations, loss of property, personal injury, and loss of life can be reduced by effective emergency preparedness.
