MOON: QUIZ: ITS COMPOSITION & ANS.KEY W/ASTRONOMY WRITING PROMPT
This quiz has interesting information about the moon's composition. There is some basalt on the moon, like the Earth but there are many differences. There is a difference in the thickness on one side of the moon, as compared to the other. An answer key is provided. We do not know why. A free writing prompt is attached about how the moon has been in free fall for millions of years. Thanks ever so much for visiting and supporting our humble shop. Much obliged. Excelsior!

Primary Productivity & Ecosystems - Unit 1 AP Environmental Science Activity
This activity was created for AP Environmental Science but can be a great resource to challenge students in lower levels! Students are given an introduction into definitions and the equation for Net Primary Production. Using three drawings, they color in the details to visualize the overall process of these (sometimes) abstract numbers! Next, students are tasked with calculations of the variables for different biomes which they will ultimately use to build two charts! Lastly, an analysis of the
