    Description

    This NGSS bundle for Middle School Science is a bundle of all of my EARTH science/geology labs, lessons, worksheets, and activities combined into one product at a DISCOUNT! All resources are aligned to the new NGSS standards and are sure to fit perfectly into your earth science or geology units! It offers FIVE WEEKS of lessons and activities! You will have access to over 155 pages of resources that are sure to engage and challenge your students. Note: This is a growing bundle although I cannot guarantee what/when new resources are added!
