Students will analyze a pie chart (circle graph) showing the distribution of different parts of the Earth system's absorption and reflection of energy. 

In this activity, students investigate three different soil samples with varying moisture content. They use a soil moisture probe to determine the percentage (by volume) of water in each of the soil samples.

This lesson introduces the Earth system science spheres through model making and discussion.

The Solar Eclipse Implementation Sequence provides a series of lesson plans for students to learn about solar eclipses.
