For this formative, there will be stations scattered throughout the classroom. Each station corresponds to a set of questions for this formative. Some stations will be hands-on, online, or a hybrid of both, but you will be graded on the content in this formative. Questions in Red are done at the stations.

Match the term with its proper description.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Sublimation		Matter changes from a gas to a liquid as it loses heat energy.
Vaporization		Matter changes from a liquid to a solid as it loses heat energy.
Condensation		Matter changes from a solid to a liquid as it gains heat energy.
Freezing		Matter changes from a solid to a gas as it gains heat energy
Melting		Matter changes from a liquid to a gas as it gains heat energy.

Select the four incorrect/inaccurate statements by clicking on the sentences.

The rock cycle describes the way that rock material cycles through Earth's crust. All rocks start out as lava or magma that cools into igneous rock. An igneous rock must then be weathered into sediments for the next stage of the cycle. Sediments are compressed and cemented to become sedimentary rock. Metamorphic rock forms when rocks are heated and squeezed deep in Earth's crust. New igneous rock forms when metamorphic rock is heated so much that it melts into igneous rock. All rocks go through this cycle over and over again.

Which statements are accurate descriptions of Earth's magnetic field? Select all that apply.

Earth's geographic and magnetic poles are in different locations.

Earth's magnetic north pole stays in the same location over time.

Earth's magnetic field has a shape described by the field lines.

Earth's magnetic field causes compasses to point north in areas shown by the field lines, but not in between the lines.

Earth has a giant bar magnet inside of it.

Earth's magnetic field can be compared to that of a bar magnet.
