Normal

Erosion is when soil and rocks are worn away and moved from one place to another. This happens through wind, water, and ice. For example, when it rains, water can wash away dirt from a hill, making it smaller over time. Rivers can also carry sand and stones downstream, changing the shape of the land. Erosion helps create beautiful landscapes like valleys and canyons!
