of
the
earth's
climate,
which
is
generally
defined
as
the

weather
over
a
long
period
of
time.
The
climate
of
a
region
is
determined
by
both
natural
and
anthropogenic
(human-made)
factors.
The
natural
elements
include
the
atmosphere,
geosphere,
hydrosphere,
and
biosphere,
while
the
human
factors
can
include
land

This
interactive
lesson
on
metamorphic
rocks
starts
with
a
review
of
the
rock
cycle
and
goes
on
to
describe
the
relationship
between
metamorphic
rocks
and
their
parent
rock.
The
lesson
then
describes
the
agents
of
metamorphism
(temperature,
pressure,
and
chemical
change)
and
moves
into
a
discussion
on
contact,
regional,
and
dynamic
metamorphism.
The
remainder
of
the

In
this
activity,
students
will
build
a
model
to
simulate
parts
of
the
water
cycle.
They
will
be
able
to
recognize
and
explain
the
essential
elements
of
the
water
cycle.
From
this
information,
they
will
appreciate
that
scale
models
can
be
an
important
tool
to
use
in
understanding
global
processes.
The
student
guide
provides
an
overall
description
of
the
activity,
a
