GAP Year 4 – The Grand Canyon and Canadian Mounties.

 

The GRAND CANYON is a giant canyon located in ARIZONA in the United States. Recognised as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Grand Canyon has taken over two billion years to form. Rock has slowly been washed away by the COLORADO RIVER, creating the steep canyon walls, through a process called EROSION. Year after year, the Colorado River has made the canyon deeper. Due to erosion, there are over 40 sedimentary layers of rock in the Grand Canyon, many of which create the colourful layers that make up the canyon walls.

Thc children laernt about the life of Canadian Mounties before creating these impressive portraits of them.  I think they look fab!
