This resource turns cultural astronomy into a complete, ready to use review for Grade 6-8 earth science, covering the same NGSS standard from three different angles.
Among the ninety questions, students will see prompts such as "How did the ancient Romans correct their calendar?", "What is the significance of the moon in many Native American cultures?", and "Which culture created a detailed solar calendar that included leap years?"
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 Sun Moon System, Phases of the Moon, Eclipses and Their Geometry, Seasons and Earth's Tilt, The Day Night Cycle, and Sun’s Apparent Motion, 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-ESS1-1.
