Interactive website where students can learn about movement of earth's 15 major tectonoic plates and identify types of boundaries. Includes glossary and learning game.
Idaho State University
Idaho State University: Landslides, Slope Failure, Other Mass Wasting Processes
Slope failure is the downslope movement of rock debris and soil in response to gravitational stresses. Three major types of mass wasting are classified by the type of downslope movement. The types of movement, falls, slides, and flows...

Wnet: Thirteen: The Earth at Work
This site from PBS provides a description of the mechanisms behind the plate movements, types of movements, and the resulting earthquakes, faults, and images and animations of several of the topics presented.
Georgia Department of Education
Ga Virtual Learning: Geology: Surface Processes
In this interactive tutorial, you will learn about the types of weathering and erosion that rocks and landforms undergo. This will lead to a discussion of soil and the types of soil. Lastly, you will learn about mass movements of soil,...
PBS
Pbs Learning Media: Kids in Motion: Weather Fitness Lesson Plan
For this lesson, learners "rediscover" weather as they use movement to act it out. Using their whole body to bend, stretch and exercise, students follow along as the teacher calls out and moves different types of weather.
