Storyline

The crew competes against the GAL-Delilahs in a treasure hunt with landforms and bodies of water as clues.

The CircuitCoin Treasure Hunt is on and RALF along with the crew must correctly identify models of landforms and bodies of water in order to find the treasure. It's an epic adventure for our crew in a race to get to the treasure before our nemeses, the GAL-Delilahs, get there first.

3-Dimensional Science

Phenomenon

Landforms have unique characteristics that can be described and represented on maps.

Science and Engineering Practices

Developing and Using Models

  • Develop and/or use a model to represent amounts, relationships, relative scales (bigger, smaller), and/or patterns in the natural and designed world(s).

Crosscutting Concepts

Patterns

  • Children recognize that patterns in the natural and human designed world can be observed, used to describe phenomena, and used as evidence.

Disciplinary Core Ideas

ESS2.B: Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions

  • Maps show where things are located. One can map the shapes and kinds of land and water in any area.
