Give your earth science students a focused look at climate zones and circulation with ninety questions built for real classroom use, whether you are starting a new unit or reviewing before a test.
Sample questions include "What role do trade winds play in rainforest formation?", "Why do coastal areas generally have milder climates compared to inland areas?", and "How do monsoon winds contribute to the climate of certain regions?"
Each worksheet reviews the same core ideas from a different angle. Use them across a week or unit so students see the material three times without it ever feeling repetitive.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers Earth's Heating by the Sun, Atmospheric Circulation Cells, Wind Patterns, Ocean Currents and Energy, Upwelling and Nutrient Cycles, and Global Wind Belts, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 6-8 earth science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to NGSS standard MS-ESS2-6.
