Help your students build real understanding of inputs and outputs through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about how the Earth works.
Students will answer questions such as "Which gas is a significant greenhouse gas affecting climate systems?", "How do ocean currents impact climate systems?", and "Which of the following is NOT a factor in the Earth's energy balance?"
All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers Earth System Models, Climate Forcings Natural, Using Historical Climate, Climate Models, The Role of Computer, and Positive and Negative, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 9-12 earth science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to NGSS standard HS-ESS3-5.
