Structure of
Earth




SC.6.N.3.4 Identify the role of models in the context of the sixth grade science benchmarks.
SC.6.E.7.1 Differentiate among radiation, conduction, and convection, the three mechanisms by which heat is
transferred through Earth's system.
SC.6.E.7.4 (AA) Differentiate and show interactions among the geosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere, and
biosphere.
SC.7.E.6.1 Describe the layers of the solid Earth, including the lithosphere, the hot convecting mantle, and the dense
metallic liquid and solid cores
Learning Goal

Identify and differentiate among Earth’s spheres and describe the layers of the solid Earth
Learning Scale



4- I can differentiate between Earth’s spheres. I can also describe and explain Earth’s layers on a model.
3- I can identify Earth’s spheres and identify Earth’s layers. (GOAL)
2- With help I identify Earth’s spheres and layers.
Essential
Question(s)


ESOL/ESE MODIFICATIONS: Multiple learning styles; Provide contextual support through models and demonstrations; Reinforce key ideas repeatedly; making
use of contextual clues; multiple media; hands-on experiences; defining content area terms, thinking maps, classroom routines; use visuals and models,
monitor students’ comprehension, give wait time, introduce new vocabulary, write directions on board; use document camera and projector with speakers
when necessary. Accommodations: Extended time; test in small group; test in alternative setting; clarify assignments and directions; check for understanding;
