This resource turns water cycle 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 does the simulation show the impact of increased vegetation on water retention?", "In a simulation where temperature increases, what effect does this have on evaporation rates?", and "What effect does increasing sediment in a river simulation have on water flow?"
Because the three worksheets share the same content in three different formats, you can spread them across the week: one for diagnosis, one for practice, and one for assessment, without repeating a single question.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers the Water Cycle, Energy from the Sun, Role of Gravity in the Cycle, Modeling the Water Cycle, Reservoirs of Water, and Water Cycle Interactions, 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-ESS2-4.
