Synopsis

Modeling Earth’s Systems introduces Grade 5 students to real-world examples and fundamental concepts that will be explored in greater depth in later grades. Students will apply their background knowledge to develop models of the different “spheres” of the Earth and use their models to discuss how different systems interact. Examples for students the influence of the ocean on ecosystems, landform shape, and our climate; the influence of the atmosphere on landforms and living things; and the influence of mountains on weather patterns such as winds and clouds in the atmosphere. As part of this unit, students are tasked to create a graphical representation of the amounts of fresh water versus saltwater on the Earth and indicate where these sources of water are typically found.
