This resource turns ice core and proxy evidence 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 "What is the significance of isotopic analysis in ice cores?", "Which of these proxies can indicate past ocean temperatures?", and "What does a decrease in tree ring width typically indicate?"
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 Energy Budget, Historical Temperature Data, Climate Models, Human and Natural Causes, Impacts of Warming, and Communicating Climate Science, 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-ESS3-5.
