MS-ESS2-1 2014 MS-ESS2-1: Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth's materials and the flow of energy that drives this process. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on the processes of melting, crystallization, weathering, deformation, and sedimentation, which act together to form minerals and rocks through the cycling of Earth’s materials.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include the identification and naming of minerals.] Essential Questions What are the steps in the rock cycle? What rocks are produced by different processes such as sedimentation, melting etc.? Enduring Understandings Students will understand that the formation of rocks and minerals occur in a cycle. Students will be able to develop a model to show how the flow of energy that drives the process. To what extent does the exchange of energy within the Earth drive geologic events on the surface? Content Statements Major geological events, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building, result from the motion of plates. Mapping of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, revealing sea floor spreading, and subduction zones are evidence for the theory of plate tectonics. Labs, Investigation, and Student Experiences Student investigation: Students, will be given unlabeled rocks and have to determine what type of rock it is, by researching it online and determining if it is sedimentary, igneous, metamorphic rock.

Identify different types of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Instructional Guidance To assist in meeting this CPI, students may: · Describe and compare the characteristics of each layer of the Earth. · Describe how technology has influenced what we know about the internal structure of Earth. · Investigate the role of the transfer of energy in geophysical processes that create unique landforms.

Seafloor spreading provides evidence of which of the following Earth processes? 1. 2. erosion of coastlines weathering of mountains 1. 2. movement of crustal plates formation of sedimentary rocks (NAEP) Sample Assessments To show evidence of meeting this CPI, students may answer the following question: 1. You are a captain of a commercial offshore fishing boat based in Manasquan, NJ. After cruising for three hours on a heading of 45 0 northeast from the harbor you discover that you are 12 0 and 55” west of your intended fishing spot. Explain to your first mate why it is Instructional Guidance To assist in meeting this CPI, students may: · Locate and map current evidence and data, such as volcanism, earthquakes, and ocean features (e.g., mid-ocean ridges, and trenches), to reveal the location of plate margins. · Apply historical field evidence, such as the location of fossils, glacial moraines, and rock structures, to the theory of plate tectonics. · Create explanations for the evidence of plate tectonics that include our current understanding of the Earth’s interior.
