Directions: You will be shown a series of “clues” taken from a complete photograph. Examine your “clues” carefully to determine what you see, what information you can gather, and what questions you might ask to piece together “the big picture.” Are you ready to be detectives?

Who is in this picture? Where do you think this picture was taken? What do you think is happening in this picture?

What new evidence can be found in this picture? What do you notice about the background?

What do you see now? What do you think the man is doing?

What is this an example of?

This photograph is an example of wind EROSION. EROSION is the movement of broken down pieces of rock by wind, water or ice.

TITLE: Dust bowl farmer raising fence to keep it from being buried under drifting sand. CREATED/ PUBLISHED: April 1936

In the below pictures, wind is picking up dirt and moving it, causing the sand to form piles or dunes. These pictures were taken during the 1930s when the south-central United States became known as the Dust Bowl. Grass had been removed from the land to farm, but because of a massive drought, the soil dried out and was easily blown away. Wind erosion can usually be prevented by planting trees and grasses because their roots help hold the soil in place.

What do these images say about the impact of humans on nature? What about the impact of nature on humans? What questions did the images leave you with?
