McGraw Hill Unit 3: Earth’s Interactive Systems

Module: Earth’s Water System Lesson 1: Water Distribution on Earth Lesson 3: Effects of the Hydrosphere

Module: Earth’s Other Systems Lesson 1: Effects of the Geosphere Lesson 2: Effects of the Atmosphere Lesson 3: Effects of the Biosphere STEM Module Project: Design a Rainwater Collection System

groundwater, polar ice caps. 4. Water reservoirs are composed of freshwater or saltwater. 5. Water on Earth is precious and should be conserved as very little of it is actually usable. 6. Earth’s systems interact in multiple ways to affect Earth’s surface. 7. Features of Earth’s Geosphere. 8. Features of Earth’s Atmosphere. 9. Features of Earth’s Biosphere. 10. Human impact on Earth’s Systems. 11. Design a rainwater collection system to reduce the effects of a naturally occurring event - drought in Utah. END OF UNIT COMPETENCY WITH LANGUAGE FEATURES & FUNCTIONS By the end of the unit I will be able to use evidence to argue to show how 2 of Earth’s systems interact with each other. Language Functions and Features: ● Use Verbs to define the phenomenon (When water from the Hydrosphere interacts with the Geosphere, _______.) ● Conditional Clauses (If _______ happens, I predict that ________ will occur. When I change __________ , ___________ is affected.) ● Connectors to link relationships ( then, because, when, in order to)
