I've been tidying up the Earth Science Web pages and decided to experiment with an alternate presentation.

Our present layout is multi-layered. The first layer is the scope and sequence. Below that lies a level where each topic is expanded and activities/resources are listed. The third level contains the details on the activities and resources. This is somewhat cumbersome. BTW, you can find our draft at

I decided to try an alternate approach for a subsection of the scope. Focusing on the section we called "Introduction to the Earth", I've put it in a more narrative form. Let me know what you think.

I haven't finished this, of course, but I was interested in feedback. Is this layout a better model?
