K-12 Teacher Resources Distinguished Educator State Standards Biggs Award ... Activity Ideas Earth Science Week October 10-16, 2004 Living on a Restless Earth Earth Science Week is a time when geoscientists around the world will be sharing their knowledge and love of earth science with their communities. Earth Science Week was established by the American Geological Institute in 1998 to raise awareness of earth and environmental sciences and their importance to society. During this week, geoscientists work with students and the general public to help them discover the earth sciences and become engaged in scientific exploration. The theme for Earth Science Week 2004 is "Living on a Restless Earth." The global community is affected by the restless nature of our planet every day. Natural hazards such as earthquakes, storms, volcanoes, and landslides threaten our homes and businesses, but they also provide evidence of the incredible power and beauty of our planet. Earth scientists study dramatic phenomena such as these to understand their causes and minimize their impacts on society. You can share your knowledge and enthusiasm about our dynamic Earth with others by getting involved in Earth Science Week. There are many ways to celebrate. Teachers and students explore earth science with activities and experiments or by having scientists visit their classrooms. Museums and science centers host earth science exhibits, and field stations and university departments hold open houses for the public. In 2003, earth scientists and educators organized more than 200 events in all 50 states and in nine additional countries.

State of Virginia Earth Science Standards of Learning The Earth Science standards connect the study of the Earth's composition, structure, processes , and history; its atmosphere, fresh water , and oceans ; and its environment in space . The standards emphasize historical contributions in the development of scientific thought about the Earth and space. The standards stress the interpretation of maps , charts, tables, and profiles; the use of technology to collect, analyze, and report data; and science skills in systematic investigation. Problem solving and decision making are an integral part of the standards, especially as they relate to the costs and benefits of utilizing the Earth's resources . Major topics of study include plate tectonics , the rock cycle Earth history , the oceans , the atmosphere, weather and climate, and the solar system and universe ES.1 The student will plan and conduct investigations in which * volume, area, mass, elapsed time, direction, temperature, pressure, distance, density, and changes in elevation/depth are calculated utilizing the most appropriate tools; * technologies, including computers, are used to collect, analyze, and report data and to demonstrate concepts and simulate experimental conditions;
