An activity book centered on six data puzzles that foster critical-thinking skills in students and support science and math standards. Earth Science Puzzles presents professionally gathered Earth science data including graphs, maps, tables, images, and narratives and asks students to step into scientists shoes to use temporal, spatial, quantitative, and concept-based reasoning to draw inferences from the data. --from publisher description
