Sculpting a State Set

Set includes 25 black and white consumable portfolios.

Various landforms in California can be attributed to both slow and abrupt changes. In a series of nonfiction articles, readers will learn how California has been shaped by these changes, whether from the movement of tectonic plates over time, or from abrupt changes like earthquakes and volcanoes. These articles are accompanied by a fictional account of a middle school class field trip, hosted by Professor Calvin Fournier, to some of the major geological sites in California effected by volcanoes, earthquakes, and the slow movement of divergent tectonic plates as in Death Valley.
