Homework for Week 3, Term 3

Do materials stay where they are deposited?

Over the next week I want you to use the web to complete the table below for mountains, hills and volcanoes. Be sure to provide evidence of your ideas :-) For those who want a challenge I have left a spare space for you to add in one more landform.

Some Moon Facts from Kathrin via email - difference between Earth and Moon and how landforms were created  Moon had very active volcanism in it's early history - there are still remnants of volcanoes, but most of all Moon was heavily bombarded by meteorites causing many of the craters we can see today. Earth also received meteorite hits but contrary to the moon today they are hard to make out - partially because of all the vegetation we have  in contrast but also because of the lack of erosional forces that lack on the moon in contrast to Earth.
