The latest JASON Curriculum is titled “Operation Tectonic Fury” and focuses on unlocking the Earth’s geologic mysteries and examines how it has changed over the past billion years. The Operation has four missions which includes a complete curriculum, video, digital labs, and interactive games. Mission 1 looks at the Earth’s building blocks where students will learn how to identify rocks and minerals and explain how they are classified by their physical and chemical properties. In Mission 2 students will investigate the Earth’s changing face, weathering, erosion and soils. For Mission 3 students will analyze the evidence by dating and identifying fossils, and understanding geologic time. Mission 4 focuses on the Earth on the move when students study plate tectonics, earthquakes and volcanoes.
The curriculum is FREE – just register on the JASON website for access to science units on geology, energy, ecology, and weather!
I've done some work with the Jason Project before. This looks great. Thanks.
