This resource turns stratigraphic principles into a complete, ready to use review for Grade 9-12 earth science, covering the same idea from three different angles.

The set includes questions like "What is the significance of the Law of Superposition in relative dating?", "If you find a layer of igneous rock intruding through sedimentary layers, what can you conclude?", and "Which factor does NOT affect the relative dating of rock layers?"

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, 28 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

• Homework or review before a test
• First look diagnostic to plan your unit
• Bell ringers and warm ups during the unit

This set is part of a standards aligned earth science unit.

Suitable for Grade 9-12 earth science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to Virginia SOL standard ES.9b.
