Give your earth science students a focused look at mid ocean ridges and age with ninety questions built for real classroom use, whether you are starting a new unit or reviewing before a test.
Among the ninety questions, students will see prompts such as "What happens to the oceanic crust when it is subducted?", "What happens to the oceanic crust as it moves away from the mid-ocean ridge?", and "What feature is typically found at the center of a mid-ocean ridge?"
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 Crustal Age Patterns, Radiometric Dating as a Tool, Plate Tectonic Movements, Engaging in Argument, Continental Shield Crust, and Atlantic Ocean Floor Age, 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-ESS1-5.
