Water Cycle
-
Standards
MS ESS2-4: Develop a model to describe the cycling of water through Earth’s systems driven by energy from the sun and the force of gravity.
MS ESS3-1: Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth’s mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes.
MS ESS2-1: Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materials and the flow of energy that drives this process.
Learning Goal 1: Students understand that the energy from the sun drives the water cycle, recycling all of the water on the Earth, which shows that water is a finite resource.
-
-
Learning Goal 4: Students understand that Earth’s limited water supply and Earth’s geological processes results in uneven distributions of groundwater resources causing some areas of the world to have less water than others.
Objective 2: TSWBAT explain the reasons for and consequences of uneven distributions of groundwater.
Formative - Formal: Students will read an article about groundwater resources. They will identify what groundwater is used for. (Lesson 4 & 5)
-
Learning Goal 2: Students understand that the energy from the sun drives the water cycle, recycling all of the water on the Earth, which impacts and changes the surface of the Earth.
-
-
Learning Goal 5: Students understand that gravity causes water to travel over the surface of the Earth, causing water to pick up contaminants.
-
Learning Goal 3: Students understand that state changes in the water cycle result in different cloud formations, creating different weather patterns.
