Rocks in the Desert

Today I designate as random topic day. I asked my children for suggestions and my son volunteered, "Why do rocks move in the desert?" He then showed me a picture from the book he was reading which indeed showed the path a rock had moved in the desert. This was followed by a brief discussion about reasons why the rock may have moved. What do think caused the rock to move in the desert?

Found this site on Exploring the North American Deserts and Desert Environments and Geology

Another site geared towards learning about deserts is Desert Biome.

If you think you know the answer about the moving rock, leave a comment. I would love to hear from you.

Happy Homeschooling!
