Sand Galaxies V: 2
Using the sand, create a spiral shape out of sand.
Draw a picture of the galaxy and record observation in your INB.
Include in your drawing where the Sun is in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Card Sort V: 2
With your table, sort the cards into Galaxy Groups that you can explain.
Types of Galaxies: Spirals
Spiral galaxies are so-named because of the graceful shapes of arms emanating from a bright
central nucleus.
(Hubble Space Telescope Image)
Types of Galaxies: Ellipticals
Elliptical galaxies lack spiral arms and dust and contain stars that are generally identified as
being old.
Types of Galaxies: Irregulars
Irregular galaxies lack any specific form and contain stars, gas and dust
generally associated with youth (They
are “new” galaxies.
Re-Sort V: 2
After watching the video, re-sort the cards into groups of Spiral, Elliptical, and Irregular galaxies.
Foldable V: 0
Create a foldable in your INB.
Foldable must include the name of the galaxy, a drawing, and a description.
Balloon Universe V: 0
The teacher will have a balloon with dots on it.
As the balloon is inflated, observe what happens to the dots.
