Weathering & Erosion Science Concept Posters | 6-Poster Classroom Set

Bring Weathering and Erosion to life with a bold, colorful set of science posters designed to do much more than decorate your classroom! This 6-poster Science Concept Set combines the visual appeal of a phenomenon poster with the instructional power of an anchor chart, vocabulary display, discussion tool, and CER activity.

Each poster uses large, student-friendly illustrations, clear labels, essential questions, and visual examples to help students see what weathering and erosion actually look like. Students move from understanding how rocks break apart to exploring how Earth materials move, comparing weathering and erosion, identifying the natural agents that cause them, and finally applying their learning as scientists. Weathering & Erosion

This 6-poster set includes:

• Weathering — Explore how water, ice, wind, plants, and other processes break rock into smaller pieces.
• Erosion — See how water, wind, and gravity move weathered rock, soil, and sediment.
• Weathering + Erosion — Follow the sequence from rock breaking apart to Earth materials being carried away.
• Weathering or Erosion? — Compare the two processes and use visual evidence to determine whether material is breaking or moving.
• Agents of Weathering & Erosion — Investigate the roles of water, wind, ice, plants, and gravity in changing Earth’s surface.
• Be the Scientist: Investigate Weathering & Erosion — Observe examples, look for clues, classify the process, and use evidence to explain scientific thinking.

Every poster also includes the familiar interactive features found throughout the Science Concept Poster product line: Essential Question, Science Note, Notice, Wonder, Science Words, Try It!, Think Like a Scientist — CER, and a memorable science takeaway.

These posters are perfect for whole-group science instruction, science centers, classroom displays, vocabulary reinforcement, review, small-group discussions, phenomena-based lessons, and CER practice. The large visuals and concise explanations make challenging Earth science concepts easier for elementary students to understand while encouraging them to observe, question, compare, and explain.

💡 More than a poster: use the Notice and Wonder prompts to launch a lesson, the Science Words for vocabulary instruction, Try It! for quick investigations, and the CER prompts to strengthen evidence-based scientific reasoning.

Whether you display the entire set on a science wall or introduce one poster at a time during your unit, this resource gives students a bright, engaging visual reference they can return to again and again.

Weathering breaks. Erosion moves. Let students SEE the science happening!
