- Synopsis
-
You are embarking on an adventure. Adventures are known for the challenges and accomplishments they bring. However, hardships are also part of the process. The challenge will be to understand Earth's systems. As you read, you will notice bold-faced words within the text. These words are defined in the text where you see them. In addition, you will find them in the Glossary. Words printed in italics are words that have been defined in an earlier chapter or other science-related words you should know.
Rather than just memorizing numerous facts, you will be expected to use information sources, such as the Earth Science Reference Tables, to help you gain an understanding of our planet. These tables are printed near the back of this book. They should be used in class, during labs, and for reference during tests. Reviewing Earth Science: The Physical Setting, Second Edition, will help you place factual information in context. This skill will allow you to answer challenging questions.
Each section of text is followed by a set of questions. In addition, there are Chapter Review questions, which are divided into the Part A, Part B, and Part C types that you will find in the Regents Exam. Each chapter also has a Problem Solving Activity. This wealth of questions provides practice in answering multiple-choice items and questions that require longer answers. In many cases, these questions test your ability to apply your knowledge and skills in new ways.
