Entree Option 1:  Pick 6 periods in geologic time

Setting up slides:  Use the template that has these already typed in! 

At Least One Slide per Geologic Time Period

 For each time period, you will need to describe the:

  • Era
  • Start and end date
  • What was Earth like?
  • What organisms were alive then?
  • What appeared or went extinct during this period?
  • Pictures of organisms or Earth during this period (at least 2)

 

Option 2:  Zoom in on one period to learn a lot more about

Setting up slides:  Use the template that has these already typed in! 

You will act as a travel agent advertising a visit to your choice of time period.  You will need to describe these options in detail to paint a picture of what Earth was like then.

  • Era and Dates
  • Detailed account of what Earth looked like (geological events, climate, etc.)
  • Detailed account of what life on Earth was like, including extinctions and appearance of new species
  • Pictures throughout
  • Why the reader would want to visit
