Heather ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied
This was perfect for the standard I was teaching. The hands-on activities and interactive notebook elements were excellent.
The resource is standards-based and focuses on the NGSS standards for 4th grade:
NGSS 4-ESS2-2. Analyze and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
Science Concepts Include:
Plate Tectonics
Divergent Boundaries
Convergent Boundaries
Transform Boundaries
Seafloor Spreading
Subduction
Layers of the Earth
Patterns in Earth’s Features
Making Arguments From Evidence
Making Models to Explain Understanding
This resource is also aligned with CCSS for Reading Informational Text for 4th Grade. This resource includes a six-page reading passage with comprehension questions and response pages.
Students will enjoy the hands-on lab, they will think deeply about the Patterns of Earth Features. There are plenty of varied activities about plate tectonics for the teacher to pull from.
