These are the two forms of wedging.

What is measuring?
These are the two types of volcanoes.
What are shield volcanoes and cone volcanoes?
This is the type of weather that causes landslides.
What is rain? (Also acceptable: storms)
This is the kind of weather that needs to happen for ice wedging to occur.
What is freezing/snowing?
This is how you determine how many things there are.
What is counting?
This is the name for black volcanic rock.
What is basalt?
This is the type of landscape where landslides can happen.
What are hills/mountains?
This is what happens to rocks as they roll down a mountain.
What is breaking down? (also acceptable: getting smoother)
This is the process of testing your guess.
What is an experiment?
This is where you can find volcanoes on a continent.
What is near the edge/coast/ocean?
This is the part of a hill/mountain where landslides are more likely to happen.
What is the bottom/lower part?
Will a taller mountain break down rocks more, less, or exactly the same amount as they travel down it?
More!
This is the scientific name for your guess.
What is a hypothesis?
This is the name for the ring/horseshoe of volcanoes around the world.
What is the Ring of Fire?
This is the minimum slope/angle of a hill for landslides to happen.
What is 35 degrees?
Are there more, fewer, or the same amount of small rocks at the bottom of a mountain compared to the top?
More!
This is how you know that something is changed by something else.
What is comparing groups/things?
This is the other natural hazard that happens in approximately the same place as volcanoes.
What are earthquakes?
This is the name of our fictional town impacted by landslides.
