Get ready to explore the planet beneath your feet, the skies above your head, and the forces that connect it all. In this class, we’ll dig into Earth’s history, uncover how rocks tell stories, follow the water cycle from clouds to oceans, track shifting continents, and even venture into outer space to understand our place in the universe.
Earth Science isn’t just about memorizing facts, it’s about asking questions like a scientist, finding patterns in nature, and making connections between what’s happening on a local scale and what’s happening across the globe. You’ll learn how to read maps and data, interpret real-world events (like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and climate change), and see how human activity shapes and is shaped by the natural world.
