Runs approximately 1.25 hours

What did this land look like a thousand, ten thousand, 1 million years ago? Alberta has many unique landscapes and features. Mountains, rivers, and valleys have formed slowly over time on the Earth's surface, but have you ever taken the time to think how they came to be?  

Using a stream table, students will experiment with the foundational elements of rocks, soil, ice, and water. They will explore the processes of river and lake formation, erosion features, and glaciation seeing the changing landscapes of Alberta

RAM Guided Field Trips include: 

·A guided visit to our Human or Natural History Halls, led by a RAM Learning team member

o   Programs last approximately 1 - 1.5 hours

·A hands-on learning activity in a dedicated activity room
