Give your earth science students a focused look at ocean currents and climate with ninety questions built for real classroom use, whether you are starting a new unit or reviewing before a test.
Sample questions include "What phenomenon is associated with a significant increase in rainfall in the eastern Pacific?", "Which current can lead to increased typhoon activity in East Asia?", and "What is the primary cause of upwelling in coastal regions?"
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 Ocean Circulation and Global, Coriolis Effect and Current, Deep Ocean Currents, El Niño and La Niña, Ocean Atmosphere Feedback, and Ocean Circulation and Carbon, 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-ESS2-5.
