Teachers Love This Unit!
Elaine ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied
My students benefitted from my use of this resource. It was well prepared and helped to clarify our unit on earthquakes further. Thank you.
This unit integrates ELA and science in meaningful ways.
This resource addresses the following standards for NGSS:
NGSS 4-ESS2-2. Analyze and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
4-ESS3-2. Generate and compare multiple solutions to reduce the impacts of natural Earth processes on humans.*
This resource is also aligned with Utah SEEd
Standard 5.1.1 Analyze and interpret data to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
Standard 5.1.5
Design solutions to reduce the effects of naturally occurring events that impact humans.
The concepts are aligned with NGSS Disciplinary Core Ideas from Earth's History, Earth’s Materials and Systems, Human Impacts on Earth's Systems, Plate Tectonics, Large-Scale System Interactions, Natural Hazards, andDesigning Solutions to Engineering Problems.
There are five pages of informational text passages! This unit is aligned with CCSS for Reading Informational Text for 4th grade, making this an integrated unit on earthquakes. The passages are also aligned with Utah Core standards for reading informational text.
This resource has 90 pages and should take about two weeks to complete. Answer keys are included.
