 * On the 2010 Kenston Field Experience, the students learned about the effects of climate change on the National Parks. Using the information gathered by the students on their trip, students in your classroom can investigate whether or not climate change is occurring, and how it could potentially be affecting our National Parks. Use the lesson plan below to help guide your students in this inquiry-based research project.

**NOTE**: As a teacher in North Carolina, I have aligned these standards to the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. However, these standards could be aligned to any state, as they match the standards outlined by the National Science Education Standards (See the Education tab for more information)

**Competency Goal 1**: The learner will develop abilities necessary to do and understand scientific inquiry in the earth and environmental sciences. **Competency Goal 2**: The learner will build an understanding of lithospheric materials, tectonic processes, and the human and environmental impacts of natural and human-induced changes in the lithosphere. **Competency Goal 3:** The learner will build an understanding of the origin and evolution of the earth system. **Competency Goal 4**: The learner will build an understanding of the hydrosphere and its interactions and influences on the lithosphere, the atmosphere, and environmental quality. **Competency Goal 5**: The learner will build an understanding of the dynamics and composition of the atmosphere and its local and global processes influencing climate and air quality.
