ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:- How does the motion of the Sun, Earth, and Moon affect the environment?- How does gravity effect the organization and motion of the solar system?
DAILY OBJECTIVES:Students will…-Review the reasons for the seasons on Earth.
V: 0EQs & Objectives
1. Using 4 Styrofoam balls, create Earth models by coloring the northern hemisphere blue and the southern hemisphere green.
2. Use toothpicks to model where the north and south poles are.
3. Using a black marker, draw the Equator.
Seasons Hats V: 2
1. Cut out a circle in the center of the foam board.2. Place the 4 Earth models around the circle to
represent the four seasons on Earth. (Make sure the Earth is tilted in the same direction for each model)
3. Make “Sun Hats”.4. Practice identifying the seasons using the new
“Season Hats”.
Seasons Hats V: 2
1. Using the following materials. Create a model of why the seasons occur.
2. Your model should include the following things:1. The Earth revolving counterclockwise around the sun.2. Earth tilted on its axis.3. The north pole, south pole, and equator labeled.4. The north star, Polaris.5. A written description of your model.
