climate change
prepare a 5-7 minute presentation for a group of high school students which introduces them to past examples of Earth’s climate and how we know what’s what the climate looked like. In this presentation be sure to address the following: At least two examples of past climate events on Earth. These examples must be before …
The Geologic Past, Present, and Future
We are surrounded by beautiful natural formations, be it forests, rivers, mountains, or oceans. Geology is the study of all of Earth’s natural forms, not just rocks and minerals. Specifically, geology looks at how and why these things came to be. Pick a major natural formation. It can be a mountain range, a river, a …
The physical geography of New Zealand
As discussed in lecture, New Zealand has a vastly different physical geography than Australia. Experience the physical geography of New Zealand through the virtual tour link below. Explain how can you learn from taking the virtual tour and what the physical geography of the New Zealand tells you about the development of the region. What …
