1. STAAR Review DAY 8 EARTH AND SPACE TEKS 8.9B (R), 8.9C (R), 8.9A (S), 8.10A (S), 8.10B (S), 8.10C (S), 7.8C (S) © Hedgehog Learning 8.9A describe the historical development of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory 8.10A recognize that the Sun provides the energy that drives convection within the atmosphere and oceans, producing winds and ocean currents 7.8C model the effects of human activity on groundwater and surface water in a watershed

2. Plate Tectonics What do the orange dots represent? © Hedgehog Learning

3. Plate Tectonics Plate Boundaries © Hedgehog Learning Illustrate and define in box 31

4. Plate Tectonics © Hedgehog Learning 1 2 3 At which number on the map are the following crustal features occurring? A.Tall mountain range formed from one plate moving into another plate. B.A mid-ocean ridge where two plates are separating. C.Earthquakes where two plates are moving past each other. 8.9B relate plate tectonics to the formation of crustal features

5. Plate Tectonics © Hedgehog Learning 1 2 3 At which number on the map are the following crustal features occurring? A.2 - Tall mountain range formed from one plate moving into another plate. B.1 - A mid-ocean ridge where two plates are separating. C.3 - Earthquakes where two plates are moving past each other.

7. Erosion and Weathering Constant reshaping of our planet © Hedgehog Learning What features can you identify in this satellite picture? What are the brown areas? Where does this come from? Where is it going? 8.9C interpret topographic maps and satellite views to identify land and erosional features and predict how these features may be reshaped by weathering

8. Erosion and Weathering Constant reshaping of our planet © Hedgehog Learning What features can you identify in this satellite picture? What are the brown areas? A: Sediment Where does this come from? A: Erosion from landscape Where is it going? A: Deposited at river deltas

9. Topographic Maps © Hedgehog Learning9 Illustrate in box 34 What is the difference in elevation in meters from the tree to the top of the island?

10. Weather Symbols Identify these weather symbols and describe what they mean. In which direction to high pressure systems rotate in Texas? Where is the world would they rotate the other direction? What is responsible for all moving currents, both in the atmosphere and in the ocean? H L © Hedgehog Learning 8.10B identify how global patterns of atmospheric movement influence local weather using weather maps that show high and low pressures and fronts Illustrate and define in box 35

11. Weather Symbols In which direction to high pressure systems rotate in Texas? A: Clockwise Where is the world would they rotate the other direction? A: Southern Hemisphere What is responsible for all moving currents, both in the atmosphere and in the ocean? A: Energy from the Sun H L © Hedgehog Learning

12. Hurricanes © Hedgehog Learning Hurricanes occur in the Atlantic ocean during the summer and fall. Why do they occur during this time and not during the winter? Where does the energy for hurricanes come from? In which direction to hurricanes rotate in the Northern Hemisphere? Southern Hemisphere? 8.10C identify the role of the oceans in the formation of weather systems such as hurricanes

13. Hurricanes © Hedgehog Learning Hurricanes occur in the Atlantic ocean during the summer and fall. Why do they occur during this time and not during the winter? A: Oceans are warmer; provide energy Where does the energy for hurricanes come from? A: Energy from the Sun In which direction to hurricanes rotate in the Northern Hemisphere? Counter-clockwise. Southern Hemisphere? Clockwise.

14. Wind & ocean currents 8.10A recognize that the Sun provides the energy that drives convection within the atmosphere and oceans, producing winds and ocean currents © Hedgehog Learning14
