EARTH SCIENCE CONTENT & LANGAUGE OBJECTIVES BENCHMARK 3 DYNAMIC EARTH Content Objectives (Students will be able to): D-1: Identify ways in which various resources can be recycled and reused. D-2: Explain the water cycle. D-3: Identify factors that cause or affect weather patterns. D-4: Identify factors that affect the rate of evaporation, condensation, and cloud formation. D-5: Identify the difference between weather and climate. D-6: Explain how geography affects climate. D-7: Recognize the solid Earth is layered with a lithosphere, a hot convecting mantle, and a dense metallic core. D-8/10: Identify the processes and factors that result in different kinds of landforms affecting water flow, soil erosion, and deposition. D-11: Describe the evidence for and the theory of plate tectonics. D-12/13: Explain the rock cycle in terms of constructive, and destructive forces in land formation, and describe that the total amount of Earth material stays the same.
