This document the layers of the earth students It students the study of rocks the major tools and activities of earth scientists It students plutonic (intrusive) on the basis of texture sources of heat students each branch
has been organized identify use is expected will identify relates identify is expected will differentiate recognize drive show affects
by the following grades
sources of heat that drive dynamic changes in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and interior of the earth
physical and chemical properties to identify and classify selected rocks and minerals describe the formation of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks and relate them to the rock cycle classify rocks as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic using texture and composition describe the relationship between crystal size and cooling rate in igneous rocks
the major branches of earth science
to local geology and industries
both local and regional earth-science-related careers describe and compare the layers of the earth, from the atmosphere to the core identify sources of heat that drive dynamic changes in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and interior of the earth describe methods of obtaining, visualizing, and analysing local and regional information about the earth evaluate the practicalities and implications of controlling weathering and erosion Geological Science (Earth Materials) It is expected that students will: differentiate between rocks and minerals use physical and chemical properties to identify and classify selected rocks and minerals describe the formation of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks and relate them to the rock cycle classify rocks as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic using texture and composition describe the relationship between crystal size and cooling rate in igneous rocks classify igneous rocks as volcanic (extrusive) or plutonic (intrusive) on the basis of texture recognize ways
between rocks and minerals
ways in which the study of rocks relates to local geology and industries Geological Science (Weathering and Erosion)
dynamic changes in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and interior of the earth
how each branch affects everyday life
