<p>Earth Science: Vocabulary ASSIGNMENT </p><p>Please write the vocabulary word and then the definition next to it. Make sure that your vocab words are in a separate column from the definitions so that you can fold the paper over covering the definition but still be able to see the vocabulary word. Also, please draw a picture on the folded side of the paper next to the definitions with a $ next to them. When you return there will be an open vocab quiz!</p><p>TIP: I made sure that the vocabulary a little over 100 words. Therefore, if you do 11 words per day (a short amount of HW) you will have completed the vocab. Please use your time wisely.</p><p>Environmental change:</p><p>1. rate of change: 2. cyclic change: 3. interface: 4. dynamic equilibrium:</p><p>Earth stats/maps</p><p>1. oblate spheroid: 2.
