Solid Earth Unit

Solid Earth Unit - Earth’s Systems and its place in the universe, and the impacts of human activity

LEARNING TARGETS BASED ON NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS:

  • I can….find evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils to explain changes in a landscape over time.
  • I can….observe and/or measure the effects of weathering and the rate of erosion.
  • I can….use maps to talk about Earth’s features.
  • I can….find information to describe where energy and fuel come from and how their use affects the environment.
  • I can….come up with solutions to reduce the impacts of Earth processes on humans (design an earthquake resistant building, flood warning system, etc).
