Description

Water is found on Earth in different places and it can be solid or liquid. Students will love these engaging hands-on and close reading activities to teach students about Earth’s water and where it is found and what forms it takes.

This resource includes:

  • lesson plans
  • gathering evidence
  • nonfiction articles
  • response pages
  • interactive notebook flaps
  • QR codes
  • hands-on inquiry-based labs
  • recording pages
  • task cards with sorting activities

 

This resource is for 2nd grade and is aligned with NGSS Earth Systems:

NGSS 2-ESS2-3. Obtain information to identify where water is found on Earth and that it can be solid or liquid.

 

It also aligns with 2nd grade Utah SEEd 2.1.3 Develop and use models illustrating the patterns of landforms and water on Earth. The model could depict water in the solid or liquid state. Examples could include a mountain with a glacier, a stream feeding into a lake, a bay environment, or an ocean surrounding a continent. (This resource really focuses on where water is and it what form. I have another resource that is more focused on landforms)

I am so impressed with this unit which manages to be distance learning and hands-on at the same time.  Really well thought out and engaging activities that allow students to practice each of the eight Science and Engineering Practices.  Really no prep for me!

The elephant article was excellent but I also thought the lab on dissecting a flower was broken down so easily, even telling me where to get inexpensive flowers!  This resource helped me teach this challenging standard in an engaging way.  Worth every penny!

My students loved this unit. I was able to present different elements of it throughout the month. It is hard to find interesting non-fictional, age-appropriate text for my students that they will enjoy. This was a great unit that aligned well for my students who have very different goals within the same group.
