Atmos: Vapor - Sphere: Ball

A layer of gases surrounding a planet or

other material body of sufficient mass that

is held in place by the gravity of the body.

Hydro: Water - Sphere: Ball

All the water found in the planet.

Earth's Spheres

Questions...

Atmosphere: Gases of Earth

Hydrosphere: Water on Earth

Geosphere: Solid parts of Earth

Biosphere: Life on Earth

Cryosphere: Ice on Earth

Can you name a sphere?

Can you define a sphere?

Sorting Activity:

Groups of 4 to 5 students

EARTH'S SPHERES

The students will be able to...

  • Identify the Earth's five spheres
  • Describe elements within each sphere
  • List or illustrate examples of interactions between spheres

SC.6.E.7.4 Students will differentiate and show interactions among the geosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere.

LA.6.2.2.3 The student will organize information to show understanding (e.g., representing main ideas within text through charting, mapping, paraphrasing, summarizing, or comparing/contrasting).

SP.PK12.US.20.6 Work cooperatively in small groups to achieve common outcomes.

Assessment/Assignment

1. Individual Assessment:

  • Plickers

2. With the same group:

  • Choose one element per sphere.
  • Write down elements and correspondent sphere.
  • Explain how those elements/spheres interact (connect the elements).

3. Illustrate or tell a story in what way humans

can influence the spheres.

Cryo: Ice - Sphere: Ball

All the water on Earth in solid form

Thank you for participating!

Earth is a complex system full of living and nonliving things and the matter and energy that continuously cycle through the smaller systems.

If you could mention elements that

make up the Earth, what would they be?

Geo: Land - Sphere: Ball

The solid parts of the Earth.

Questions

  • Which elements were hard to sort?
  • What strategies did you use?

Bio: Life - Sphere: Ball

The zone of life on Earth
