Curated OER
A Look at the Geological History
In this geological history worksheet, students draw a cartoon strip to sequence how the North American continent grew. Students use information about continental drift to sequence events of how the different continents were formed.
Curated OER
Water Systems
In this water systems worksheet, learners refer to their textbook to complete questions about the amount of water on earth and the portion of water in various forms. Students review porosity, permeability, and water table. This worksheet...
Curated OER
Glacier Puzzle
In this glacier worksheet, students identify and locate vocabulary terms related to glaciers. There are 17 words located in the word search.
Curated OER
Geologic History of Long Island Sound
In this geologic history of Long Island Sound worksheet, students read about how the Long Island sound was formed through rivers and glaciers advancing and retreating. Students answer 5 questions about the reading and the formation of...
Curated OER
Evidence of Climate Change
Sixth graders examine climate change in the state of Colorado. In this climate lesson, 6th graders watch 2 video clips regarding the topic and research the subtopics- snow pack, precipitation, temperature, forest fires, river flow,...
Curated OER
The Iceberg
Students being the lesson by identifying the characteristics of icebergs. Using a worksheet, they read the characteristics of a few of the major cultures found throughout the world and see how many they can identify when viewing a person...
Curated OER
What's Under There?
Students determine ways to make "observations" about unknowns, such as the land beneath an ice sheet or the interior of the Earth, using tools other than sight. They build "mystery boxes" and exchange them with other groups to "map"...
Curated OER
How is the Earth's Surface Worn Down?
In this Earth's surface worksheet, students write in examples of how the surface of the Earth is worn down. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.
Curated OER
Ocean World
In this online interactive science activity, students respond to 7 multiple choice questions regarding icebergs. Students may submit their answers to evaluated.
Curated OER
Elements In Chemistry: Solids, Liquids and Gases
Young scholars investigate the kinetic-molecular theory. In this state of matter lesson, students consider the differences of melting glaciers, melting icebergs and investigate on what happens when submerged water melts.
Curated OER
Global Climate Change
Second graders investigate the effect of melting glaciers to sea level. In this earth science lesson plan, 2nd graders simulate the process in the lab by conducting an experiment using ice cubes and clay. They explain the consequences of...
Curated OER
Glacial Landscapes
Students examine the impact of glaciers on Great Britain. In this geological history lesson, students examine and measure a glacial valley and look at several types of glacial landscapes in Britain.
Curated OER
Antarctica: Effects of Salinity on Icebergs
Middle schoolers investigate the effects of salinity on icebergs. In this hands on instructional activity, students design and conduct an investigation into how the amount of salt in ice affects its buoyancy.
Curated OER
Elements of Chemistry: Solids, Liquids and Gases
Young scholars predict if icebergs melting has an effect on the sea level rising. In this global warming lesson plan students complete an experiment to see the effects of melting icebergs and write a conclusion on their data...
Curated OER
When Land Ice Melts
The Artctic and Antarctic Ice caps are the focus of this Earth science lesson. In reality, this is more of a demonstration than a lesson, but there is some rich discussion that happens before, during, and after the demonstration takes...
Curated OER
Glacial Groundwater
Learners study glacial deposition and groundwater in Dutchess County, new York. They identify the permeability rates in different glacial deposits and relate this information to ground water capacity of sediments found in Dutchess...
Curated OER
Geographic Landforms
Each slide is a simple notebook page with one landform in blue and its definition in red. There are 26 vocabulary terms in all, some you may want to use, and others easily hidden. It is recommended that you add photos or other graphic...
Curated OER
Studying Snow and Ice Changes
Students compare the change in snow and ice over a 10 year period. In this environmental science lesson, students use the live data on the NASA site to study and compare the monthly snow and ice amounts on a map of the entire...
Earth Day Network
Conserving Water Through Art!
Having fresh, clean drinking water is a privilege many people take for granted. Help raise awareness about the scarcity of water and the importance of conservation by discussing different ways water is used in everyday life. Brainstorm...

The Old Man and the Sea Ernest Hemingway
Accompany a reading of Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea with a thorough literature packet. Although the materials are meant to prepare readers for a timed essay, the background information and the activities are...
Curated OER
Glaciers and Ice Wedging
Fourth graders observe buckling sidewalks and potholes before attempting to determine how these things are caused. They freeze water filled plastic cups that have been covered. As the water freezes, the students observe what happens to...
Curated OER
Glacier Presentations
Students research news articles relating to global climate change. In this earth science lesson, students create a news broadcast using the information they gathered. They present this in class and each student gives their peer...
Curated OER
The Changing Earth
Pupils explore the Earth's crust. In this earth science lesson, students participate in 2 activities that demonstrate physical and chemical weathering. Pupils also play Jeopardy with topics including volcanoes, earthquakes, weathering,...
