What causes a glacier to melt? Can you build an earthquake-proof structure? Can you create a cloud in a bottle? Your student will explore these questions and more as we explore how extreme earth can be. Together we will test hypotheses on how fast glaciers would melt, design and test earthquake-proof structures, and learn about earthquakes, tsunamis, air pressure, and more. This lesson is NGSS aligned and addresses the following concepts: 

•        Weather and climate
•         Plate tectonics and large-scale system interactions
•         Physical science: matter and its interactions: structure and properties of gases
•        Engineering design: defining a problem, developing solutions, optimizing the design solution
