IES Oceans Investigation 3
Sampler pages 8-10: Investigate Part A – Surface Currents
1. Complete steps 1 and 2 in your group2. Discuss step 3 as a “class”
What patterns do you see between surface currents and wind direction?
What new questions do you have? Form a hypothesis to explain the relationship
between wind direction and surface currents. Give reasons based on evidence.

Your Students Will:
Learn the principles and practices of Earth science. Hypothesize, experiment, reflect, and analyze. Develop an understanding of how the Earth works
as a set of systems. Appreciate the relevance of Earth science to their
lives and the environment. Work collaboratively with other students to solve
problems.

The Big Picture
1. Earth is a set of closely linked systems.
2. Earth's processes are powered by two sources; the Sun and Earth's own inner heat.
3. The geology of Earth is dynamic, and has evolved over 4.5 billion years.
4. The geological evolution of Earth has left a record of its history that geoscientists interpret.
5. We depend upon Earth's resources-both mined and grown.

Making the Earth System Connection
All students should develop an understanding of Earth as a set of closely interrelated systems: geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. (NSES, 1996)
