MOTIONS OF THE EARTH. As you know that the earth has two types of motions, namely rotation and revolution. Rotation is the movement of the earth on its axis. The movement of the earth around the sun in a fixed path or orbit is called Revolution.
Calculate the rate of movement in cm per year for the six pairs of peaks. Use the formula rate = distance/time. Convert kilometers to centimeters. For example, to calculate a rate using normal-polarity peak 5, west of the ridge: 125 km rate = 10 million years. 12.5 km = million years. 1,250,000 cm.

This Earth’s Motions Worksheet is a great way to assess students’ understanding of the movements of the earth. This resource is ideal for grades 5-7. It covers orbit, axis, rotation, revolution, seasons, solstice, and equinox. There are 22 questions with both a PDF and Google Form version.
Imagine a line passing through the center of Earth that goes through both the North Pole and the South Pole. This imaginary line is called an axis. Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth’s rotation.
Our Plate Tectonics lesson plan teaches students why the earth moves and why people can't actually feel it. Download the free PDF today!
