Help your students build real understanding of ocean pollution and plastics through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about how the Earth works.
Among the ninety questions, students will see prompts such as "Which of the following is a consequence of marine debris on wildlife?", "What role do marine bacteria play in relation to plastics?", and "What is one effect of plastic pollution on marine ecosystems?"
Because the three worksheets share the same content in three different formats, you can spread them across the week: one for diagnosis, one for practice, and one for assessment, without repeating a single question.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers Anthropogenic Changes, Urbanization and Land, Agriculture and Nutrient, Deforestation and Habitat, Greenhouse Gases, and Aral Sea or Amazon Basin, 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-ESS3-3.
