The student will investigate and understand how Earth's surface is constantly changing.

Key concepts include

1. identification of rock types

2. the rock cycle and how transformations between rocks occur

3. Earth history and fossil evidence

4. the basic structure of Earth's interior

5. changes in Earth's crust due to plate tectonics

6. weathering, erosion, and deposition; and

7. human impact

ROCK CYCLE

Depending on how rocks are formed, they are classified as

sedimentary (layers of sediment cemented together)

igneous (melted and cooled, e.g., lava and magma)

metamorphic (changed by heat and pressure)

ROCK IDENTIFICATION

Rocks have properties that can be observed, tested, and described.

Classification keys (5.1) can aid this process
Be sure you can identify rock samples of granite, gneiss, slate, limestone, shale, sandstone, and coal using a rock classification key.

ANCIENT EARTH - FOSSILS

Scientific evidence indicates Earth is ancient - approximately 4.6 billion years old.

The age of many rocks can be determined very reliably.

Fossils provide information about life and conditions of the past.

EARTH'S LAYERS

Scientific evidence indicates that Earth is composed of four concentric layers - crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core - each with its own distinct characteristics.

The outer two layers are composed primarily of rocky material.

The innermost layers are composed mostly of iron and nickel.

PLATE MOVEMENT

Plates can

move together (convergent boundaries),

apart (divergent boundaries),

WEATHERING & EROSION

HUMAN IMPACT

Humans have varying degrees of impact on Earth's surface through their everyday activities. With careful planning, the impact on the land can be controlled.
