Geologic Time
CAS 3.1 Complex interrelationships exist between
Earth’s structure and natural processes that over
time are both constructive and destructive
CAS 3.2 Geologic time, history, and changing life
forms are indicated by fossils and successive
sedimentation, folding, faulting, and uplifting of
layers of sedimentary rock
CAS 2.5 Multiple lines of evidence show the
evolution of organisms over geologic time

Step 2
Under your list or on the back make a rough draft of
your ideas. Sketch pictures, add words and start
making connections
Remember this is just a rough draft to get your main
ideas and formatting down. Do not spend a lot of time
on the picture details.
Write the complete standard on the outside of your folder. Pick a visual picture that you could use to sum up this science standard
CAS 3.3 The solar system is comprised of various objects that orbit the Sun and are classified based on their characteristics.
CAS 3.4 The relative positions and motions of Earth, Moon, and Sun can be used to explain observable effects such as seasons, eclipses, and Moon phases.

Step 4: Transfer your ideas onto your
final copy.
Only Use pencil at first to get your
basic design and facts down… then
go back and add color!
