This worksheet challenges students to correctly complete a rock cycle diagram by placing terms from a word bank into the diagram. This is a great resource for differentiated instruction. If you want to increase the difficulty, you could withhold the word bank and see if students can fill it in.

Here is a simple lab to get your students familiar with minerals. This lab is designed to meet the New York State science standards in earth science but it will work in any classroom as long as you have at least 12 of the minerals listed on page 16 of the Earth Science References Tables.

Interpreting station models is difficult for many Earth Science students but is often asked on cumulative tests. Here are 19 editable practice questions. In order to assess the topic on more than one learning style, the first nine questions are multiple choice and attack station models from different angles. The remaining ten questions are open ended and require the student to complete a station diagram or make inferences from them. Included is a Word document that the teacher can edit, a PDF ve

Drawing isolines from a field map is difficult for many Earth Science students but is often asked on cumulative tests. Here are 7 editable practice questions. In order to assess the topic on more than one learning style, two questions ask students to identify the proper isomap when given a blank field map, and the remaining questions ask the student to draw their isolines. Included is a Word document that the teacher can edit, a PDF version they can be printed and handed out as-is, and an answer

These are my most popular sellers so I am bundling them into one cost-saving item. The Rock Cycle and Tectonic Plates are some of the most common topics taught in Earth Science. In this bundle I have included two comprehensive worksheets that you can then follow up with a quiz for each. And best of all, I've included an answer key for both. If you like these, please consider some of my other items in my store.

Teachers can check the students' work using the provided answer key. If you like this, check out my Rock Cyc

This is just a simple worksheet that introduces or reviews the similarities and differences between mixtures, compounds, and solutions, along with examples and practice.

Here is a short lesson on Density. It includes a worksheet for class practice and then a quiz that closely resembles the practice. These should be used after the concept of density has been taught.

This short activity is a very fun way to introduce the importance of following directions in the classroom. I use it in my science classroom, but you can easily alter it to fit the subject you teach. In short, some students will actually follow the directions. The other students will not follow the directions and painstakingly, and uselessly, try to completely each task before time is up. Meanwhile, you and the first students will silently snicker at one another. It's a blast!
