Exploring Local Environments

Discover Nature Near You

Earth science isn't just in textbooks—you can explore it outside! Parks, rivers, and even your backyard contain clues about Earth's systems.

Activities to Try

  • Collect rocks and try to identify their types.
  • Observe clouds and keep a weather journal.
  • Visit a nearby stream and notice how water shapes the land.

Connecting with Science

Exploring your local environment helps you notice changes and appreciate the natural world.

Examples

  • Students create a nature journal with weather observations.

  • Families hike in a park to look for different rock formations.
