Shasta after viewing the 3-D fly-around movie. The students then looked at the DEM (digital elevation model) for Mt. Shasta. We discussed how DEMs andtopographic maps are similar. DEMs are computer files of topographical elevation data that Vistapro can render into 3-D images. The students then viewed the Mars crater movie and drew a topographic map from then topographic maps using hatchure marks. They then viewed the DEM for the Mars canyon movie, and drew atopographic map from the 3-D drive through. They learned how to depict a canyons in topographic maps. It is important to revisit topographicmaps and review certain facts: on one contour line, all elevatio Read More Go to Site Core Knowledge Lesson Plans: Kindergarten Votes:0 About K–8 Schools Preschool Bookstore Resources Conference Forums News Core Knowledge ® Lesson Plans Resources home About the Lessons » Search Adobe Reader ® Lesson Plans Leadership Preschool Kindergarten First grade Second grade Third grade Fourth grade Fifth grade Sixth grade Seventh grade Eighth grade Art & music Special areas Baltimore Curriculum Project Write your own: Lesson plan templates Contact Us Resources > Lesson Plans > Kindergarten Kindergarten Lesson Plans PLEASE NOTE: Some lesson plans refer to appendices that are not included in the PDF file ; unfortunately, these appendices are unavailable due to copyright or other issues beyond our control.

Plate tectonics is the great driving engine that shapes the mountain ranges and ocean trenches of the earth. Plate boundaries are the areas of volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building. Weather and the atmosphere drive erosion and the cycling of rocks from mountains to the ocean.

Almost all of these projects here have a set A and set B. Most use simple and cheap materials that you can find at the grocery store, drug store or hardware store. For some I am hoping you have the materials in your closet, kitchen or garage. These lessons and activities were very popular with the students and these yielded some very good projects this year in our school Science Expo. A few lessons here are best with grades 2-5 but still very useful to K-2. Disappearing puddles of water Which will evaporate first? The truth about water vapor Color and heat Why is the ocean salty?
