Earth's Cycles Project Final Assessment

Part 1
Rock Cycle
1.How does magma change into a metamorphic rock?
magma--lava--crystallization--igneous rock--heat/pressure--metamorphic

Carbon Cycle
2.How can a fossil fuel be used in photosynthesis?
fossil fuel--consumption--CO2 emission--CO2--absorption/producers--photosynthesis

Water Cycle
3.How does a cloud turn into groundwater?
cloud--precipitation--run off--infiltration--groundwater

Part 2
How are the rock, carbon, water cycles connected to the hydrosphere, lithosphere, atmosphere and biosphere?

Required Paragraphs:
Hydrosphere Paragraph- Hydrosphere is water cycle,their process is the same.weathering and precipitation are the same.erosion and crystaltization also connected hydrosphere.Producers use water to photosynthesis and absorption.Consuners use water too.

Lithosphere Paragraph- Lithosphere is Rock cycle,land,soil.Fossil fuels cover in soil.Rain water run-off in soil,then infiltration to groundwater.

Atmosphere Paragraph- Atmosphere is Carbon cycle.carbon cycle and water cycle both need sunlight.clouds make from water vapor and CO2.

Biosphere Paragraph- Biosphere is living thing,producers,consumers and docomposers.Bacterial also erosion rock.Transpiration by the producers.

short answer
How are three cycles connected to each other?
Producers and consumer use water.CO2 and water vapor make clouds.precipition and weathering rain the plants, animal and rock.fossil fuels in soil,infiltration slao happened on soil.

Reflection
1.What did you enjoy most about about this project and why?
I most enjoy to draw the comic about the rock cycle, because it was funny and drew the rock had eye,hand like human.

2.What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
I think it was using clay to make the rock, magma,lava etc.Because it was diffcult to make and not look like.

3.What new skills did you learn from doing this project?
I learn little bit how to make a cartoon video.

4.Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work?
Make clay faster, spend more time to take more photo, use clay to make our name.

A Piece in the Puzzle Project
Vocabulary
Climate--气候--the weather in an area over a long time period
Climate zone--气候带-- divisions of the climantes into an general climate zones
Landform--地形-- natural feature of the Earth's surface
Water resources--水资源--sources of water that are useful
Natural resources--自然资源--materials or substances
Natural disasters--自然灾害--a natural event, causes great damage or less of life

      I think the natural characteristics of a specific country are world location, climate, climate zone, landform, water resources, natural resources and natural disasters. China located on the continent of Asia. Climate zone are cold/cool/warm temperatures zone, subtropical zone, tropical zone and vertical temperature zone. Water resouces have Yangtze River, Yellow River, Pear River, Xihu Lake, East China Sea etc. Natural resources have oil, iron, gas, coal, lead and others. The main natural disasters are earthquake, flood, typhoon and drought. Our country located on Asia, so we are
Asians. Our skin is yellow, we are Yellow people. And we are Chinese.

 


1. What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
     I most enjoy finding the images, because I know and understand my country again. My country is
     so beautiful.
2. What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
       The music was most challenging for me, because I find the great music and I like,  I want my video slower, but the music full. I find the longer music, but it is not good, I don't like.
3. What new skills did you learn from doing this project?
     I learned how to make the video in ANIMOTO.
4. Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work? Explain.
     I could have done to improve the definition of the vocabulary.
5. what would you change about this project?
