What educators are saying

This is a comprehensive resource. All processes were covered and pictured in each diagram. The students were very engaged.
This is a great resource. The figures are especially helpful. I get the students to fill them out and we discuss the cycles as they look at a hard copy of the figure that they can keep and study.

Description

2023 UPDATE! Included with the cycle diagrams is now a ONE-PAGE overview of the water cycle, carbon cycle, nitrogen, cycle, and phosphorus cycle. A separate page for each information sheet with student comprehension questions is included for each cycle. These are included with the printable diagrams ONLY (they are not currently part of the Google Slides file). The information on each cycle includes NGSS-aligned content: discussing human impacts to each cycle and their reservoirs.

This is a Google Slides and Printable activity that will give students practice or review with labeling the biogeochemical cycles: Water, Carbon, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus cycles. It can be easily downloaded as a PowerPoint file and used on OneDrive, too!

In the digital version, each cycle has its own slide and the "blanks" on the diagrams are color-coded to represent the biotic/abiotic factors involved in the process, the different processes that occurs during the cycle, and the different forms of the chemical in the process.

Students simply drag and drop the terms in text boxes to the appropriate place on the diagram. Answer key is included and can be removed when assigned to students or include the answer key so student can check their work!

In the print version, each cycle has its own page. A word bank is included and the blank labels on the worksheet are shape-coded to represent the biotic/abiotic factors involved in the process, the different processes that occurs during the cycle, and the different forms of the chemical in the process. Print answer keys are included!

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSHS-LS2-3
Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for the cycling of matter and flow of energy in aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Emphasis is on conceptual understanding of the role of aerobic and anaerobic respiration in different environments. Assessment does not include the specific chemical processes of either aerobic or anaerobic respiration.
NGSSHS-LS2-7
Design, evaluate, and refine a solution for reducing the impacts of human activities on the environment and biodiversity. Examples of human activities can include urbanization, building dams, and dissemination of invasive species.
NGSSHS-LS2-5
Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere. Examples of models could include simulations and mathematical models. Assessment does not include the specific chemical steps of photosynthesis and respiration.
NGSSHS-LS2-4
Use mathematical representations to support claims for the cycling of matter and flow of energy among organisms in an ecosystem. Emphasis is on using a mathematical model of stored energy in biomass to describe the transfer of energy from one trophic level to another and that matter and energy are conserved as matter cycles and energy flows through ecosystems. Emphasis is on atoms and molecules such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen being conserved as they move through an ecosystem. Assessment is limited to proportional reasoning to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy.
NGSSHS-ESS3-1
Construct an explanation based on evidence for how the availability of natural resources, occurrence of natural hazards, and changes in climate have influenced human activity. Examples of key natural resources include access to fresh water (such as rivers, lakes, and groundwater), regions of fertile soils such as river deltas, and high concentrations of minerals and fossil fuels. Examples of natural hazards can be from interior processes (such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes), surface processes (such as tsunamis, mass wasting and soil erosion), and severe weather (such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts). Examples of the results of changes in climate that can affect populations or drive mass migrations include changes to sea level, regional patterns of temperature and precipitation, and the types of crops and livestock that can be raised.
