1. SEPTEMBER 2, 2015 Ms. Rogers’ Science Class!! !

2. DO NOW 1.Name three main skills that scientist use 2.Can you make an inference without having made any observations? Explain. 3.Define scientific theory? What is scientific law? 4.One thing you learned from this reading and why you will remember the information. What graphic organizer would you use to put this information in? (switch with someone at your table)

3. ANSWERS = 10PTS 1.Observing, Inferring and predicting (3pts) 2.No, an inference is based on observations and reasoning from what is already known. (2pts) 3.Scientific theory is a well tested explanation for a wide range of observations or experimental results. Scientific law is a statement that describes what scientist expect to happen every time under a particular set of conditions. (3pts) 4.Answer may vary. KWLFR graph; 1 point for each answer should be two parts. (2pt)

4. VOCABULARY PAGE 13 Vocabulary 1. energy 6. matter 2. hydrosphere 7. wave 3. lithosphere 8. heat 4. biosphere 5. atmosphere 9. thermal energy 10. Earth Science

5. HOMEWORK Write and define all of your vocabulary words and in which way they affect the study of the earth. For example; 1. energy (page 14) – is the ability to do work or cause change. It is apart of the Earth’s system.

6. LESSON Overview of the Earth. What are important facts they should know about the Earth? Why do we study it?. Do a textbook scavenger hunt of the first couple sections.

7. THE EARTH

8. THE LAYERS OF THE EARTH crust core Outer core mantle

9. THREE PARTS OF EARTH SCIENCE Geology Meteorology Environmental

10. EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE

11. ATMOSPHERE SLIDES http://www.slideshare.net/Jessica027/layers-of-the- atmosphere-12609314

12. WHY EARTH SCIENCE? (VIDEO) https://sites.google.com/site/earthsciguy1/multime dia/videos/topic-01 https://sites.google.com/site/earthsciguy1/multime dia/videos/topic-01 http://www.history.com/shows/the-universe/videos/planet-earth

13. WHY EARTH SCIENCE 1) What is Earth Science? 2) Why study Earth Science? 3) How do geoscientists collect data? 4) What is density? What factors can affect an object's density? 5) How do scientists measure change? 6) How do scientists publish their work in order to have the greatest impact? 7) How do we analyze and interpret data?

14. Activity-Prefix/suffix Graphic Organizer Breakdown the words Biosphere, Hydrosphere, Atmosphere and Lithosphere Separate the prefix from the suffix- Bio/Sphere Define the prefix and suffix- Bio= living Sphere= circular Define the word- living circle, circle of life Give example- water cycle, food chain Give other examples- Biology, biodegradable, etc.
