Earth's atmosphere
地球的大气层
Description
Develop a model to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere interact as connected Earth systems
Mastery Evidence
- Name the four Earth systems: geosphere (rock/land), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), biosphere (living things)
- Describe at least two interactions between different Earth systems with examples
- Create or interpret a model showing how a change in one system affects others
Assessment Prompt
Can your child explain how rain (atmosphere) falls on mountains (geosphere), flows into rivers (hydrosphere), and provides water for plants and animals (biosphere)?
