Each lesson will include one or more pictures typically a picture can be worth a thousand words each picture will be chosen to show something of significance to the lesson. The image at right was created to represent some of the lessons we will be learning can you guess what each of the zones might represent.

In this area you will typically fined links related to what you are doing or learning.

Going Further

When possible each lesson will have a section on going further. These sections are for college bound students and for those who are thinking about a career in Earth science. It will give resources for information that students can use to go more in depth on what you will be studying. However, it is by no means a complete list of resources. The internet is constantly changing and newer and better resources maybe added in the future. Students are encouraged to submit web sites that they have found useful and those web sites maybe added as links to the units. For those that are added to the course extra credit will be rewarded to students even if it doesn't make the main page it maybe added to student's links page.
