1. The Explore the Carbon Cycle and Michigan’s Land, Air, and Water student activities can be used as assessment.

2. Have students play the interactive online Carbon Cycle game at http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/climate/carbon_cycle.html and answer the questions. The game board highlights the carbon reservoirs or carbon pools (atmosphere, plants, soils, shallow ocean, deep ocean, and marine life). They can follow up with a narrative of their carbon cycle journey.
