    This document provides an overview of an Earth Science unit that discusses the different spheres that make up Earth's systems - the biosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and cryosphere. It lists class rules and objectives, which include describing each sphere and giving an example of how they interact. Examples are provided of how spheres like the lithosphere and cryosphere can impact other spheres through volcanic eruptions and melting ice caps.

    Unit 1 Earth Science and Systems

    Class Rules
    Keep chat on topic and related to class.
    Come prepared. (Be caught up on the
    calendar or have questions ready)
    Participate (respond to questions)
    Raise Your Hand if you have a question or
    want to slow down.

    Objectives
    After today, you will:
    Describe each Earth Sphere.
    Give an example of how the spheres
    interact.
    Construct an experiment for a given
    hypothesis.

    Discussion
    What are the different spheres?
    What have you done that relates to one or
    more of these spheres?
    Post in the discussion! Four posts total!

    Earth's Spheres
    Biosphere
    Lithosphere
    Hydrosphere
    Atmosphere
    Cryosphere

    Earths Spheres
    Biosphere - living things. Plants, animals, etc.
    Lithosphere - Rocks, soil, earth.
    Hydrosphere - Oceans, rivers, lakes.
    Atmosphere - Oxygen, nitrogen.
    Cryosphere - Glaciers, ice caps

    List ways the spheres influence each


    other.
    Natural disasters, human activity, cycles?

    Biosphere
    Lithosphere
    Hydrosphere
    Atmosphere
    Cryosphere

    How do they relate to each other?


    If a volcano (lithosphere) erupts, sending out
    fire, gas, dust, and rocks, what other spheres
    does it impact? How?
    If the the ice caps melt (cryosphere) would it
    affect the hydrosphere? Biosphere?

    What is the ozone layer? Why is it


    important?

    Objectives
    You have:
    Described each Earth Sphere.
    Given an example of how the spheres
    interact.
    Constructed an experiment for a given
    hypothesis.
