Geologic Time Notes – Key Concepts:
- How Earth’s history is organized into time periods
- Origin and evolution of early life
- Major changes across different geological eras
- Law of superposition
- How rock layers form and what they tell us
- Using fossils to understand Earth’s past
- Understanding how rock layers relate to time
Fossils Notes – Key Concepts:
- What fossils are and why they matter
- Different ways fossils can form
- Where fossils are typically found
- How fossils help us understand evolution
- Using fossils to date rocks and understand past environments
Related Standards:
- NGSS MS-ESS1-4: Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth’s 4.6-billion-year-old history. Emphasis is on how analyses of rock formations and the fossils they contain are used to establish relative ages of major events in Earth’s history.
- NGSS MS-LS4-1: Analyze and interpret data for patterns in the fossil record that document the existence, diversity, extinction, and change of life forms throughout the history of life on Earth under the assumption that natural laws operate today as in the past.
