Earth's Four Spheres (Systems) Rocky Mountain National Park Activity for Science
Earth is divided into four systems or 'spheres' called atmosphere, geosphere (lithosphere), hydrosphere and biosphere. Each of these systems work in different ways to keep our planet going and they also all influence the other systems as well. With this activity, students will learn the basics about each sphere, how they function, what they are made of, how they influence the other spheres and examples of the sphere in action in Rocky Mountain National Park. Basically, students will be divided i

Light Pollution and Sea Turtles: Biscayne National Park Activity for Science
We are all affected by light pollution (man-made light that is lit at night). In some forms it can be good as it helps us see, but with some unnecessary bright glows comes great consequences, particularly to baby sea turtles. This activity is designed to teach this and more to middle school and high school students. You'll begin with a short demonstration in your classroom using a flashlight and dark-colored paper to show how light pollution can affect how much we can see natural light, like sta

Factors that Affect Transpiration in Great Smoky Mountain National Park Activity
Transpiration is the process where plants release water vapor into the air. This is an important part of the water cycle and there are many factors that affect the amount of transpiration that happens in a certain area. Great Smoky Mountains National Park, for example, has a high rate of transpiration, which is why we often see that blue mist across the area (which is how the Smokies got their name). Students will learn all this and more in this activity. They will also focus on five major facto

Relative Dating Rock Layers in Grand Canyon National Park Science Activity
One look at Grand Canyon National Park and you know that geologic processes have immensely shaped the land. It is so unique because of its many rock layers, fossils and minerals. Scientists have been studying this canyon for years and they use many methods to relatively date the rock layers and geological events that have occurred in the canyon. By relative dating, we can develop a timeline of events to help us understand what happened in a certain area. With this activity, students will first l

Genetics Matching Activity and Graphic Organizer
Hello!
I made this activity as a formative assessment for NGSS MS-LS3-2. Before students are introduced to content, they will be given a few minutes to try the matching activity as a pre-assessment. We will then watch "Crash Course Biology #9: Heredity" and students will make changes to their activity board. Next, we will begin Harry Potter Genetics from the NIH and make more revisions. After I have checked students boards for accuracy, students will fill in their own graphic organizer to u

Cuyahoga Valley National Park: Human Impact on Water Sources Reading and Debate
In 1969, the Cuyahoga River became known to the world as it caught fire when a passing train sent sparks on the heaps of pollution found in the river. This sent its own spark to environmentalists around the world as the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the Clean Water Act and eventually Cuyahoga Valley National Park were developed. In this activity, students will learn about the fire and about human impact on water sources and then they will debate a specific topic by analyzing a controver
