Earth Science Topic Wheel

Earth and space science is full of vivid, self-contained topics that students love to claim. Spin for one to research — volcanoes, the water cycle, the planets — and let the wheel divide them fairly across the room. Trim the list to your unit, whether that's geology, weather, or astronomy.

Earth Science Topic Wheel questions

Can I split this into space and earth topics?

Yes — copy the wheel and edit each list. Keep one for geology and weather and another for astronomy, then spin whichever fits the lesson.

Are these topics too broad?

They're deliberately broad starting points. Narrow any of them — “volcanoes” becomes “types of volcanoes” or “a famous eruption” — by editing the entry text.
