1. What makes EARTH, Earth?

2. ENERGY is the ability to
THE SUN
affects everything on Earth’s surface.
The SUN is a source of
ENERGY.
ENERGY is the ability to
do work or cause change.

3. with air, land, water and living things to make the planet EARTH.
The SUN
Working together
with air, land, water and living things
to make the planet EARTH.
AIR, LAND, WATER, AND LIVING THINGS
ARE Parts CALLED…

4. SPHERES Because the spheres work together,
the spheres TOGETHER with the SUN,
are the parts that make EARTH

5. The Earth has four main parts or spheres:
- Atmosphere
Biosphere
Hydrosphere
Lithosphere

6. Atmosphere ATMOSPERE = Vapor Sphere
Atmosphere is the outermost sphere.
This sphere contains the GASES that we call air. It is also where clouds, storms, smog are found.

7. Atmosphere…vapor or gases of Earth
Clouds
Smog
Storms

8. BIOSPHERE BIOSPHERE = Life Sphere Contains all living things
in the air, ocean and on
or beneath the land surface.
Bugs, animals, humans, plants, birds, tube worms living in the deep ocean floor…all living things.

9. Lithosphere LITHOSPHERE - It is also called the Rock Sphere
The UNEVEN Surface = LAND
Thin CRUST…Rocky Mountains, Andes Mountains
Great Plains, Ocean Floor
Thick
MANTLE 
LIQUID CORE 

10. are part of the lithosphere
Solid MANTLE and Liquid CORE
The lithospere is the Earth’s solid, rocky outer layer. It
includes the crust
(all land and the
ocean floor),
mantle, and
liquid core
are part of the lithosphere

11. Andes Mountains, South America
are part of the lithosphere

12. Rocky Mountains, North America
are part of the lithosphere

13. Great Plains from North Dakota to Texas
are part of the lithosphere

14. Ocean Floor
is part of the lithosphere

15. HYDROSPHERE HYDROSPERE =Water Sphere
Consists of Water in the oceans, lakes, rivers, streams,
between rocks, underground, in the soil
and in the air.
Most of the Earth’s water is found in the
oceans.

16. MATTER is made up of atoms
Groups of atoms are molecules.
Everything is made up of atoms.
Matter moves through ENERGY TRANSFER.

17. ENERGY can be TRANSFERRED from
Place to place by :
Moving Objects
Waves like sound waves
electromagnetic waves
Heat Flow from
warm object to cooler object

18. Heat is the thermal energy transferred
from one object to another as a result
of a difference in temperature.
Thermal Energy = TOTAL Energy
of all of the atoms that make up an object.
Atoms are in constant motion.
Their motion and vibration contains
energy.
