In this Earth Science Lab, I have my students design an experiment that determines which sediment type is the most porous and which sediment type is the most permeable. This is a common design that my students come up with. There are others, but this one works well. For the lab, go to https://earthscience.xyz/content/porosity-and-permeability-lab.
MinuteEarth, a youtube channel demonstrates how a river goes from straight to meandering. Learn some basic concepts of erosion, deposition, and stream formation in this video. This science video also talks about river landforms.
In this activity, students get to know Alfred Wegener and why and how he came up with the idea of continental drift and the super-continent Pangaea. Students will complete some internet searches to discover what type of fossils Wegener used to help him come up with his hypothesis. Students will find the time period the fossils lived, which continents they were found on, and describe both the current climate and the climate in which they prehistorically lived. Students will also cut out the Pangaea puzzle and fit the fossils, and rocks together.
In this Earth Science activity, students will gain a deeper understanding of the following Vocabulary: seismologist, seismograph, seismogram, epicenter, P-Wave, S-Wave, Wave Amplitude, Magnitude, and Richter/Moment Scale.
Students will create a digital spreadsheet that will help them calculate data they gathered by looking at actual seismograms. Technology is incorporated throughout the lesson.
In this Earth Science lab, students will create their own homemade barometers using a canning jar, a balloon, and a straw. The barometers can show low and high-pressure systems. After they build their barometers, students will complete a daily log, by measuring the height differences of their barometers. They will determine rising and falling barometers. Students will also observe the weather that is currently outside.
