Plate Tectonics Activity: A Synthesis of the Cross Section of the Earth
One of my very favorite activities to do with students - in fact, I use it whenever I can because it provides an engaging way to get my students talking about plate tectonics, using new vocabulary, and flexing their creative muscles. If you haven't taught plate tectonics, this is a great lesson to open with - all the background you need for this activity is included!This lesson includes an illustrated brief introduction to plate tectonics, followed by an activity that challenges students' under

Earth's Systems & Cycles Project
This project has students research either a natural or man-made disaster and discuss how it affects the four spheres (biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere). Students must also draw a connection to the cycling of matter (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, or nitrogen). Students research a specific event that occurred recently to find images and specific details on how the four spheres were impacted. This resource includes a suggested outline for student presentations and a rubric for teac

Worksheet and PPT: Earth's Spheres
Four major parts of Earth work together as a complex system: rocks, water, air, and life. On a global scale, each part can be thought of as a sphere, roughly the same size and shape as the planet. The four parts are called the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere.This lesson introduces students to the 4 spheres, including definitions, examples, and a practice in which students identify and describe the 4 spheres in photographs. Includes student note-sheet, photographs, and supplemen

Deadliest Volcanoes: PBS Documentary Questions & Key
PBS: Deadliest Volcanoes is an Earth Science documentary featuring some of the most violent and active volcanoes on Earth. The video tells how scientists can predict when a volcano will erupt. My document involves detailed questions that students in middle or high school can fill out while watching the film. There are also after-viewing questions that will get students to analyze what they learned.
