My Story: Glaciers - __Read__ My Story And Find The __Key Words__ :) --Learn new words, and read an incredible amazing story .. that happened a long time ago !

Once upon a time. A long time ago, there was a //big//, //cold// object. It was a massive piece of ice, which moved slowly, it was a __**glacier**__ !! As the glacier kept moving forward very slowly, it collected rocks, silt, gravel, clay, and boulders. All that mixed together was //and// is called __**till**__. Time kept passing, and the big glacier kept moving at it’s normal pace. It left behind big blobs of land that were created as __**drumlins**__. Since the drumlin had a large body of water around it, it was thought as a **__drowned drumlin__ .** After it rained many times it formed __**rills**__ and __**gullies**__. As the rocks began tumbling at the top, they began running off the surface that's known as** __run off__ **.

 Although many years have passed ,the drumlin still stands. It has a __**beach**__ (look’s like a **<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__spit__ ,** done by <span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__**long shore drift**__ ) where many kids go and play there, in the sand. The view is great although the kids don’t know how long it took to create such wonderful beach, and not only a beach, there’s a place to sit down on the grass where the soil is moist. Where the soil is held right in place (**<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__loess__ **). They played in the shore where waves are causing erosion (**<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__erosion by waves__ )** and <span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__**impact**__ against the rocks. It looks scratched (**<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__abrasion__ **), and lots of sediment from the glacier was left behind (**<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__deposition__ **).

<span style="color: #a143c7; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;"> On rainy and windy days the wind blows and blows. Hard at times, softly at others. No matter how hard the wind blew it picked up little pieces of sand and blew them around (<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__**erosion by wind**__ ). Moved them left, right, up and down. Not only did the wind do that. Every time it rained the little raindrops picked up grains of sand (<span style="color: #f92c96; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">__**erosion by water**__ ).

<span style="color: #a143c7; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;"> Many of this happened more than once. The glacier has caused many things on the Earth… And many more changes will happen as time passes! <span style="color: #a143c7; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 110%;">So next time you go to the beach, remember this story!
