Wednesday February 5, 2014

Today the students and I started notes over the sun, moon and earth.  We just completed the notes over the sun and then watched a video over the sun giving the students a visual demonstration of what we talked about in the notes.  I then handed out a notes quiz over the sun based on the notes and video.  I have put the notes quiz questions below, they were given as homework and will be due tomorrow.

1.       How does the sun compare to the Earth, in terms of size, location, composition, and temperature?
2.       Why are some layers of the sun hotter than others?
3.       What events take place on the surface and in the atmosphere of the sun?
4.       What forms of technology do scientists use to study the sun?
