Images below are from: Open University (click for link) Earth's water is almost entirely saline (salty), and less than 3% is freshwater.
Of the freshwater, less than 1% is surface or atmospheric water, the rest is underground or frozen in glaciers and icecaps. Notice that water flows downwards with gravity. As water moves over the landscape and out to sea, it picks up minerals, and undergoes evaporation. This causes the water to become increasingly salty. Water is stored in basins, such as oceans, lakes and aquifers (groundwater). It can also be stored in plants and clouds. Water is transported through runoff, rivers, evaporation, precipitation, transpiration, etc. To save your slides as a pdf, see image below.

Topics and worksheets were provided. Each group was provided with individual worksheets, meaning that there is a rough draft and a final draft for you to work with. The final draft is expected to be neat and clear. As a conclusion to each scientific investigation the step is to Publish Results. For this, students must create a graph, table or chart to illustrate their findings. This can be done by hand, using appropriate paper (graph or blank paper), or by using an online program such as: www.rapidtables.com/tools/pie-chart.html (10 points) Vocabulary Flash Cards: Template and 5 words were provided to each student. Students must create 5 cards, with the vocabulary term neatly printed in the centre on one side. On the other side, will be an explanation of the term and an illustration. (10 points) Powerpoint: This will be made in student's school Google drive account (using "Google Slides"). The final presentation must be submitted to Ms. Yvette's shared folder. Each group will create a 5 slide presentation (not including title slide). This presentation will cover the chapter that the group lab comes from. (10 points) See grading rubric below: Chapter 15 Earth’s Water
There are a couple of great Khan Academy videos, that demonstrate how the phases of the moon work, and put the scale in perspective: www.khanacademy.org/science/cosmology-and-astronomy/earth-history-topic/moon-phases-and-eclipses/v/intro-to-moon-phases Below, the first video shows the moon, as we see it, through all its phases. The second video shows the the far side of the moon (the side we never see), from the perspective of space, and in relation to the earth. |
