Three of Earth's spheres are introduced to your earth scientists: lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. Each are described with text, while a combination of photographs and computer images are displayed. One of the best ways to use this resource is to have learners view it at home, take the quiz, and print out their results to turn in to you.
