Earth Clock-A Timeline, Past To Present
| Would you believe that learning earth history can be fun for your students? This lesson reaches back to the beginning of earth, some 4.567 billion years ago, and presents its entire life, up to now, on the scale of a 24-hour clock. The activity initially looks difficult because of the math, but the process is simple and repetitive. Every kind of student can do this, even those who struggle with math.
This activity is broad in perspective, so it can easily adapt to cover several kinds of chapters, like plate tectonics, volcanoes, and adaptations. We even left you some room in the activity for you to add in your own things.
