Subjects: Earth sciences, Study and teaching (Secondary)

Description: Earth science is one of the major fields of science. It is the study of the earth and its history. Earth science is also the study of changes on the earth and the earth's place in space. Earth science is like a jigsaw puzzle made up of four pieces. Each piece is a main branch of earth science. The four main branches are geology, oceanography, meteorology, and space science. - p. 2.
