Earth Science Concepts and Processes

Mumu Math and Science presents an educational course on earth science, focusing on geology. The course covers Earth's layers, minerals, rock types, erosion, landforms, plate tectonics, fossils, soil, and resources. Each video includes worksheets, review questions, and enrichment activities. By the end, students will understand Earth's structure, mineral properties, rock types, geological processes, landform creation, tectonic movements, fossil insights, soil composition, and resource types.
