Description

Are you looking for an engaging way to teach ocean and atmospheric circulation? Teach how convection currents impact both air and water and how energy from the Sun affects climate at different latitudes with this NO PREP resource where middle school science students use a slideshow to use to fill in their sketch notes.

Please click the PREVIEW to see what is included in this ready-to-use resource.

  • 3 pages of sketch notes cover how energy from the Sun impacts ocean and atmospheric circulation. Easily teach how convection currents impact climate.
  • Energy from the Sun is not equally divided to all parts of Earth and higher latitudes receive less direct sunlight than the equator
  • Convection currents occur in the atmosphere and water also called ocean and atmospheric circulation
  • Sketch notes are great for interactive science notebooks and are visually engaging, have graphics, and are a concise way to cover middle school science topics.
  • A 45-page slideshow guides students as they fill out their notes and learn about convection currents and climate.
  • 2 Claim Evidence Reasoning or CER questions on convection currents and sample answers are included. CER science writing encourages critical thinking and is great for practice and assessment.
  • Digital self-grading (Google form) and printable options for a quiz are included
