Students will be able to explain how particle size determines the rate of deposition of sediments. Sediments can be formed as a result of combinations of minerals in seawater or as a result of the breakdown of mineral deposits or rocks.

In this activity, you will mix dirt and water, and see what happens to the dirt when you stop mixing. Sediments settle in layers according to their density. Fill your jar halfway with dirt. The more different materials in your dirt, the better. Put the jar down and observe what’s happening inside.
