Incorporating Into the Earth Science Curriculum

Project based learning -satellite/remote sensing -ozone -plate tectonics Core Concepts - density - EMS - convection Resources

Remote Sensing Project -Expansion of my satellite project -Transition activity

Requirements: Word document "poster" Model of remote sensing instrument

Ozone Project Learn more about ozone Design a unique question to research - spend time on this step - most groups need assistance - keep working until question is specific to simplify research

Ozone Research Questions Student generated topics -How does the ozone hole affect the arctic food web? -Is there a connection between bad ozone and global warming? -What is the cost of smog related health issues? -What is bad ozone doing to plants? -Is the thinning ozone layer increasing mutations? -Is there a link between smog and asthma? -Can the ozone hole be repaired?

Examples of Ozone Project

Plate Tectonics Lab Extension of class lab Students ask a question and design an experiment to answer it

Earthquake lab videos earth quake lab video #1 earth quake video #2 slow motion video

Core Concepts revisited throughout the school year Examples: Density Convection Electromagnetic Spectrum

Density Begin year with review and lab activities, then revisit - ocean exploration, water temps, salinity, ROV currents, thermohaline circulation - construct a neutrally bouyant object - convection - air masses and fronts - cloud formation

Designing a neutrally bouyant object

Convection introduced after density, then revisited - convection currents within mantle of earth, plate tectonics - convection currents within sun - transfer of energy via convection in atmosphere, cloud formation, winds

Convection currents made with food coloring

Food coloring is placed off center on bottom, is drawn inward, then rises as it reaches the heat source.

Electromagnetic Spectrum - remote sensing - astronomy, telescopes - atmosphere, ozone, earth's energy budget
