Standard: Show Content Tip
5a Students know some changes in the earth are due to slow processes, such as erosion, and some changes are due to rapid processes, such as landslides, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes.


Holistic Rating: Moderate coverage of this standard.
Pages B2, B10 and B12-B22 provide moderate coverage.

Aspects that help student learning:
Text and illustrations in the cited pages provide in-depth coverage of slow processes, such as weathering, erosion, and continental drift.


Aspects that do not help student learning:
Text provides limited coverage of changes due to rapid processes. While volcanoes and earthquakes are mentioned, they are not sufficiently contrasted as rapid processes, compared to the slow processes that are treated in depth.

This section also contains extraneous and inappropriate content.
