The sky went dark the morning of May 19, 1780, in New England. The darkness traveled quickly from the West and did not go away until the following day. At the time and in years following the event, many theories have been offered to explain the darkness. After receiving an overview of the situation, students working in groups form a hypothesis giving their explanation of the mysterious event. The students then receive three sets of clues, one set at a time, to help them solve the mystery.

Banded Iron Formations Case Study - Evidence of Coevolution of Earth's Systems
Banded iron formations are iron-oxide deposits that occur in Earth's strata during periods of increasing levels of atmospheric oxygen. Using dating techniques, scientists can use this as evidence for when the first photosynthetic organisms emerged and how they impacted the atmosphere. This follows with standard HS-ESS2-7 which highlights evidence of the coevolution of Earth's systems. Changes in the biosphere have thus led to a change in atmospheric composition and the lithosphere.Students w
