Landslide science experiment to teach fast Earth changes and solutions to severe weather in 2nd grade. Add this landslide simulation to your second grade science activities when teaching fast and slow earth changes. Students build models and think critically about how landslides can be prevented or their impact reduced.

This science fair project idea highlights decomposition rates by comparing how long it takes an item to decompose in a compost pile vs. a landfill.
