What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. © Copyright M. J. Krech. All rights reserved.

Earth Science: is four sciences rolled into one!

The first is: GEOLOGY which studies the Earth's interior and surface

The second is: ASTRONOMY which studies the universe, stars, planets, and moons

The third is: METEOROLOGY which studies the Earth's atmosphere: weather and storms

The fourth is: OCEANOGRAPHY which studies the Earth's oceans.

What is an Earth Science Event?

An EVENT is: An Occurrence on Earth that causes a change

List an EVENT for each Branch of Earth Science on your worksheet.

Here are some EVENTS for OCEANOGRAPHY: © Copyright M. J. Krech. All rights reserved.

Here are some EVENTS for METEOROLOGY:

Here are some EVENTS for ASTRONOMY:

Here are some EVENTS for GEOLOGY:

What is an ACTIVITY of an OCEANOGRAPHER? -Studies icebergs -Tracks ocean currents -Studying the ocean floor

What is an ACTIVITY of an ASTRONOMER? -Studies the planets -Studies comets -Trying to discover if there is live on other planets

What is an ACTIVITY of a GEOLOGIST? -Map earthquakes -Studies how to prevent floods -Make topographic maps

What is an ACTIVITY of a METEOROLOGIST? -Studies and predicts the weather -Investigate climate control -Studies hurricane control

YOUR ASSIGNMENT IS: Find one newspaper articles or pictures with captions relating to two different Earth Sciences. Cut or print it out. Attach to your worksheet. Answer these questions for your article.

THE QUESTIONS FOR YOUR ARTICLE ARE: Identify the BRANCH of Earth Science. What ACTIVITY would a scientist have to do for this article to be written? What EVENT is covered by this article?

The objectives for this assignment are: 1. Identify the major branches of Earth Science 2. Describe the events that occur in each branch of Earth Science. 3. Identify an Activity of a scientist in each branch of Earth Science. Be sure you can answer questions about these objectives! © Copyright M. J. Krech. All rights reserved.
