concepts of space‚ our solar system‚ galaxies and other celestial objects. Students will learn about the importance of space technology and space education. Students will use various space related activities to explore the basic concepts and to demonstrate their acquired knowledge. Students will use a variety of text and online resources to explore the subject matter presented throughout this lesson plan. Lesson Objectives: Students will be able to define astronomy and solar system. They will be able

today comes from fossil fuels‚ which is a nonrenewable limited resource that will eventually be used up. Alternative energy sources such as solar‚ hydroelectric‚ geothermal and wind energies can be used‚ to conserve the planets limited natural resources. Alternative energy is the use of another energy without the burning of fossil fuels and break up on atoms. Solar energy can be used to operate cars and provide electricity for homes and businesses. Hydroelectric energy can be used to provide electric

heating of water to the modern solar cells of the present day. The sun‚ creator of energy forms The sun isn’t just the mother of all life; it also creates almost all of the other energy forms. Most of the energy forms are just indirect solar energy. Waterpower exists because the sun makes the oceans to become steam so that the water can flow back as rivers‚ with enormous power. Wind power exists because different parts of the atmosphere absorb different amounts of solar heat and then comes into collision

Government (guilty) e.i. Government officials did not approve of the electric car so they did nothing to assist General Motors in selling it. e.ii. President Carter supported clean energy but President Nixon cared so little about clean energy he had the solar panels taken off the roof of the White House. f.

Around 1250 A.D.‚ historical records show‚ ice packs began showing up farther south in the North Atlantic. Glaciers also began expanding on Greenland‚ soon to threaten Norse settlements on the island. From 1275 to 1300 A.D.‚ glaciers began expanding more broadly‚ according to radiocarbon dating of plants killed by the glacier growth. The period known today as the Little Ice Age was just starting to poke through. Summers began cooling in Northern Europe after 1300 A.D.‚ negatively impacting growing

Saturn is the second largest planet in the solar system. Because Saturn is bigger than Earth‚ you would weigh more on Saturn. If you weigh 100 pounds on Earth you would weigh 112 on Saturn. The Romans gave the planet Saturn its name after their god of agriculture. Saturn is 74‚899 miles wide (120‚535 kilometers wide). It takes Saturn ten hours and forty minutes to complete one single rotation‚ isn ’t that cool! One day on Saturn is only ten hours long‚ ours is twenty-four hours long. Thirty years

been studying the solar system. The learning objective for the students was “I can discuss/apply/evaluate the sun‚ planets and other bodies in our solar system”. My assessment of mastery was done in several forms: class discussion in the form of a jeopardy game‚ student creation of a “postcard” from their favorite planet where they had to write home to a loved one on Earth telling about the characteristics of the selected planet and the creation of a candy model of the solar system.
