1 On a WorldStrides science action adventure program, students experience science like they never have before, as they visit some of the most educational and exciting destinations Iceland has to offer. WorldStrides educational activities support, at minimum, various Next Generation Science standards for students at the 6-12 level. Most importantly, our hands-on approach focuses on developing students understanding of inquiry-based science through investigation and experimentation. Please note that standards selected for grades 9-12 also incorporate standards selected for grade 6-8 in addition to application of greater depth and breadth of standards appropriate to a high school science curriculum. Program content for grades 6-8 may also draw from standards for grades 9-12, with appropriate adjustment for learning objectives and level. Reykjavik City Pure Energy Orientation: National Museum Description of Iceland s capital with a tour of the city whose motto, Pure Energy, describes it perfectly. With their course leader, students will see firsthand how a successful thermodynamic system can deliver power to home and businesses. Students engage with Iceland s cultural and natural history at the National Museum. They explore the ways in which humans have interacted with the environment throughout the ages. Standards Grades 6-8 Grades 9-12 materials and the flow of energy that drives this process. MS-LS2-3. Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. MS-ESS3-1. Construct a evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth's mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes. MS-ETS1-2. Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem. HS-ESS3-1. Construct an for how the availability of natural resources, occurrence of natural hazards, and changes in climate have influenced human activity. HS-ESS3-2. Evaluate competing design solutions for developing, managing, and utilizing energy and mineral resources based on cost-benefit ratios. HS-ESS3-4. Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems. HS-PS2-6. Communicate scientific and technical information about why the molecular-level structure is important in the functioning of designed materials. WorldStrides 218 W.

2 Thingvellir National Park The Great Geysir and Strokkur Students explore Iceland s first national park, largest lake, and a rift valley in Thingvellir National Park. Students learn the ways in which Iceland s physical landscape has been shaped by its volatile geological environment and the ways in which these processes affect living organisms and interdependent ecosystems. one of Iceland s most distinct features: the original hot water spout for which all other geysers are named. Students will delve into the changing nature of Earth s geoscience processes as they examine lessened activity in the Great Geysir and escalated activity in its reliable neighboring geyser, Strokkur. MS-ESS2-3. Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions. MS-LS2-1. Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem. MS-LS2-2. Construct an explanation that predicts patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple ecosystems. MS-LS4-4. Construct an that describes how genetic variations of traits in a population increase some individuals probability of surviving and reproducing in a specific MS-LS2-3. Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. HS-ESS1-6. Apply scientific reasoning and evidence from ancient Earth materials, meteorites, and other planetary surfaces to construct an account of Earth s formation and early history. HS-ESS2-7. Construct an argument based on evidence about the simultaneous coevolution of Earth s systems and life on Earth. HS-ESS1-5. Evaluate evidence of the past and current movements of continental and oceanic crust and the theory of plate tectonics to explain the ages of crustal rocks. HS-LS3-3. Apply concepts of statistics and probability to explain the variation and distribution of expressed traits in a population. HS-ESS2-3. Develop a model based on evidence of Earth s interior to describe the cycling of matter by thermal convection. WorldStrides 218 W. Water St., Suite 400, Charlottesville, VA (Rev. 10/15) 2
3 Gullfoss and Seljalandsfoss Waterfalls Kerid Crater Lake Solheimajokull Glacier Eyjafjallajokull Volcano Students experience the powerful natural wonder of Gulfoss 250-foot cascade into a canyon. They practice scientific observation, data gathering, and classification skills as they carefully analyze unique features of the physical landscape. what it takes for organisms to survive and thrive in what seems at first glance to be an unlikely ecosystem: a 3,000- year-old volcanic crater lake. Students discover how biodiversity, genetic variation, and the relationship of environmental factors to the success of species always find a way. They look back in time on the ingredients for the building blocks of life. Students engage with a first-hand look at Solheimajokull, the southwestern snout of the Mydralsjokull icecap. They explore the role of glaciers in shaping the landscape and their impact on the entire planet s climate. Students encounter Eyjafjallajokull Volcano, responsible for the famous 2010 ash eruption, serves as the basis for a fascinating study into MS-ESS1-4. Construct a evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth's 4.6- billion-year-old history. MS-LS2-1. Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem. MS-ESS2-6. Develop and use a model to describe how unequal heating and rotation of the Earth cause patterns of atmospheric and oceanic circulation that determine regional climates. materials and the flow of energy that drives this process. MS-LS2-4. Construct an argument supported by empirical HS-ESS2-7. Construct an argument based on evidence about the simultaneous coevolution of Earth s systems and life on Earth. HS-LS2-6. Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning that the complex interactions in ecosystems maintain relatively consistent numbers and types of organisms in stable conditions, but changing conditions may result in a new ecosystem. HS-ESS2-4. Use a model to describe how variations in the flow of energy into and out of Earth s systems result in changes in climate. HS-ESS1-5. Evaluate evidence of the past and current movements of continental and oceanic crust and the theory of plate tectonics to explain the ages of crustal rocks. WorldStrides 218 W. Water St., Suite 400, Charlottesville, VA (Rev. 10/15) 3
4 Eyjafjallajokull Volcano (cont) Hveragerdi Hot Springs Hellishedi Powerplant a human population that both depends upon and fears its functional ferocity. Students explore the fascinating environmental surroundings of Hveragerdi s hot spring, as well as the widespread effects and innovations associated with powerful volcanoes. Students engage in hands-on cooking with geothermal power as they learn the principles at work behind how and why they are able to boil eggs and bake bread through the natural energy and heat of the hot spring. Students build on their understanding of geothermal activity and energy dynamics with a visit to Hellishedi Power Plant, where they observe the culmination of these important elements and study the ways in which they contribute to the support of human life and comfort and how that life and comfort support pattern in turn affects the natural evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations.
