Earth Space Science: Energy Resources Building an Energy Efficient Life The following learning activities were backwards planned to facilitate the development of students’ knowledge and skills for mastery of this NGSS Performance Expectation. Not all of the dimensions and CCSS are covered in the following activities and teachers are encouraged to address them where possible. MS-ESS3 Earth and Human Activity Students who demonstrate understanding can: The performance expectation was developed using : Connections to other DCIs in this grade-band: MS.LS2.C Articulation of DCIs across Common Core State Standards Connections: Extracting Fossil Fuels Steam Turbine Renew a Chip and Uses Students will: Students will: Generate questions Students will: Model an oil reserve about electricity Conduct a simulation of Read an article Observe the effects of energy use finding oil and drilling heat energy on water Collect and analyze data Compare the model to Student Model the action of a Organize data in a real life Experience turbine variety of ways Use the model to Revise model design Communicate what predict effects on the of a turbine they have learned environment Compare a model to a energy resources Write a journal entry representation of a real turbine
