Earth & Sun Notes 1

Is the Earth straight up/down? NO! The earth is tilted on its axis 23.5 degrees. **Show Globe http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/space/solarsystem/images/earth_tilt.jpg 2

Day & Night 3

How does the earth move? Rotation – one complete turn on earth’s axis. Takes approximately 24 hrs. to make one turn. (1 day) 4

How does the earth move? Revolution – one complete orbit of the earth around the sun. Takes approximately 365 ¼ days. (1 year) So why do we have leap year? Each ¼ of a day adds up each year and after 4 years there is a full day added to the calendar. 5

What causes day & night? As earth rotates on its axis, it turns towards and away from the sun. DAY TIME = your half of the earth is facing the sun. NIGHTIME = your half of the earth is turned away from the sun. 6

Time Zones 7

Why are there time zones? As earth moves, different parts of the earth receive sunlight at different times. This is why there are different time zones around the world. In the US, the east coast turns towards the sun first. 8

U.S. Time Zones Map ***Show with the Globe 9

Think, Pair, Share: How would you explain a sunset? How much of the earth experiences daylight at any given time? Why do some places on earth receive 6 months of daylight and then 6 months of nightime? 10

Seasons 11

Why are there seasons? It takes Earth 1 year to orbit around the sun. As Earth orbits, it’s tilted at different angles towards or away from the sun. Summer is warm because the Sun's rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle during summer 12

Why are there seasons? Seasons Animation 13

Equinox “Think Equal” Sunlight hits the earth most directly at the equator as the earth orbits around the sun Northern & Southern Hemisphere’s get the same amount of sunlight Day & night each lasts 12 hrs Occurs during spring & fall March & Sept. 14

Solstice When the tilt of the Earth's axis is directly towards or away from the Sun Occurs during winter & summer Dec. & June Winter Solstice Summer Solstice -shortest day of the year -1st day of winter -longest day of the year -1st day of summer 15

Think, Pair, Share: How is it possible for us to be out on break and go to the beach and students in Australia to be out on break and go skiing? What is a solstice? When do they occur? What is an equinox? When do they occur? 16
