Using interactive exercises, students will describe the structure of atoms and the locations of particles with in the atom.

Using interactives, students will demonstrate that gravity is the force that governs the motion of our solar system.

Students will identify how light years are used to measure distances and sizes of components of the universe.

Students will identify how global patterns of atmospheric movement influence local weather.

Students will identify the role of the oceans in the formation of weather systems such as hurricanes. 

Students will describe producer/consumer, predator/prey, and parasite/host relationships as they occur in food webs.

Students will identify how humans depend on ocean systems and explain how human activities such as runoff, artificial reefs, or use of resources have modified these systems.
