AL TARBIYAH AL NAMOUTHAJIYA INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS Middle Science Department (2024-2025) Page 2 Teacher; Nourhan Tarras CHAPTER 4 : NAFFIS STANDARDS 3-2The Earth System 6-5-3-2-1 Classifying the layers of the atmosphere and identifying their components, characteristics, changes, its effects on the environment and their benefits to humans. Classifying the layers of the atmosphere and comparing them according to their similarities and differences. Explaining some environmental problems resulting from changes occurring in the layers of the atmosphere. Determining the causes of weather fluctuations and their relationship to the earth’s water cycle and predicts their environmental effects on the weather. Explaining the movement of air masses and currents stating their effects on the earth’s weather. Explain the causes of climate change in some parts of the world and proposes multiple solutions to address the impact and risks of weather fluctuations 6 5-3-2-2-Deducing the relationship of the Earth’s spheres to each other and predicting the interactions, and changes that occur between them and the geological effects resulting from them Describing the Earth’s spheres and Plate tectonics, identifying the layers of the Earth that make up the lithosphere and the biosphere, and distinguishing between them. Describing how magma moves Earth’s plates, using that for explaining the formation of oceans and mountains. Determining how the Earth’s physical features (land features and water features) are described. 6-5-3-2-3 Describing the factors and processes that affected the Earth’s surface which changed some of its features Explaining the geological changes and processes that affect the earth’s surface, classifying and locating them. Describing the impact of earthquakes and volcanoes in shaping the Earth’s surface and changing its features. Explaining the factors of erosion, weathering, and sedimentation and their causes, and predicting the patterns of their action and their effects on earth.

Describing the types of rocks in his area, explaining their characteristics, and their use. Explaining the geological events that the rocks were exposed to in his area. 6-5-3-2-5 Determining the causes and effects of earthquakes and volcanoes and identifying the sites most vulnerable to earthquakes and volcanoes 1- Relating the change of the Earth’s shape with the external and internal geological processes. 2- Explaining the causes of earthquakes and volcanoes, anticipating the damages that result from them, and proposing solutions for prevention to limit their effects. 3- Determining the locations and types of earthquake monitoring stations and devices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and comparing between them.

Which diagram shows a convergent boundary? a. A b. B Subject science Grade 6 Assessment Type Practice 1 Title Practice sheet 1 Teacher: Nourhan Tarras Lesson Chapter 4 Lesson 1: Earth’s moving Surface Name Lesson 1 notes; - Asthenosphere; partially melted portion of the mantle below the lithosphere - Convection; circulation within fluids caused by differences in density and thermal energy - convergent boundary; where two plates move toward each other - divergent boundary where two plates move away from each other - lithosphere crust and uppermost part of the mantle - plate tectonics; theory that states that Earth’s surface is broken into large, rigid pieces that move with respect to each other - subduction; process that occurs when one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate - transform boundary; where two plates slide past each other
