History of Earth MS-ESS1-4 History of Earth MS-ESS1-4. Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth’s 4.6-billion-year-old history. LT: I can interpret rock strata scenarios and develop an explanation for how the rock layers formed.
