This resource turns model based explanation 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 diagram best illustrates the concept of thermohaline circulation?", "How do ocean currents affect marine biodiversity?", and "What is one consequence of global warming on ocean circulation?"
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.
