This resource turns explanation and evidence into a complete, ready to use review for Grade 6-8 earth science, covering the same NGSS standard from three different angles.

Sample questions include "Which of the following best describes a maritime polar air mass?", "How can satellite imagery assist in weather reporting?", and "What kind of data might indicate an approaching warm front?"

What's Inside?

• 30 Multiple Choice questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 True or False questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 Short Answer questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• Includes Answer Key with Explanations for all 90 questions
• 6 print ready PDF files, 26 pages in total

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.

Ways to Use This Resource

• First look diagnostic to plan your unit
• No prep cover lesson for a substitute teacher
• Bell ringers and warm ups during the unit
• Self checking practice, since every answer key includes explanations

This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers What is an Air Mass, Movement of Air Masses, Fronts and Weather Patterns, Reading Weather Maps, Predicting Weather Changes, and Weather Station Lab, 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-ESS2-5.
