6 II: Power Point Project Directions: You will create a Power Point Project of Long Island s Environmental Features. Your project will include a minimum of 10 slides. Each slide must include: A Photo o Each photo must be original, do not use internet images! o To ensure photos are original, you must either take pictures where you are seen in the photo or you must place a name tag in the photo. o A caption must be included, describing the location A Definition o Write a paragraph IN YOUR OWN WORDS describing each environmental feature you have found. Within this definition provide at least 2 examples of the environmental feature. The 10 Environmental Features you must research are: 1. Metamorphic Rock 6. Sand Dune 2. Igneous Rock 7. Inlet 3. Sedimentary Rock 8. Glacial Erratics (boulder) 4. Physical Weathering 9. Barrier Island 5. Chemical Weathering 10. Erosion Example Page : Caption: Lake Ronkonkoma viewed from the North side of the lake Definition: A kettle lake is a small depression formed as a result of glacial movement. It is formed when a large piece of ice breaks away from the edge of a retreating glacier, and becomes partially buried under sediment deposited by the glacier. After it melts, this fragment leaves a depression in the landscape. A Kettle Pond or Kettle Lake is formed when water fills up the kettle hole. Most kettles are circular in shape because melting blocks of ice tend to become rounded. Two types of kettles are recognized: a depression formed from a partially buried ice mass by the sliding of unsupported sediment into the space left by the ice, and a depression formed from a completely buried mass by the collapse of overlying sediment. In the United States, kettle holes are common in Wisconsin, Minnesota, New England and New York.
