Argyle students made a series of videos to demonstrate how soil is formed in nature.  (Note:  information was taken from Mining Matters II:  The Earth’s Crust  (Manitoba Edition) )  ( Mining Matters;  http://www.MiningMatters.ca ; 904-1200 Eglinton Avenue East, Toronto, ON M3C 1H9)

 

This video demonstrates how rocks change into sediment due to wind erosion (Mining Matters II):

An Argyle  Alternative High School student made a video on Sand Folds.  (Note:  information was taken from Mining Matters II:  The Earth’s Crust  (Manitoba Edition) )  ( Mining Matters;  http://www.MiningMatters.ca ; 904-1200 Eglinton Avenue East, Toronto, ON M3C 1H9)

Questions to think about when you are making your sketch (after watching the video):

1.  What is a syncline?

2.  What is an anticline?

3.  What causes folding of the earth’s crust?
