JOURNEY INTO OUR SOLAR SYSTEM ASTRONOMY JOURNEY INTO OUR SOLAR SYSTEM

Identify: North America, South America, North Pole, South Pole

Draw the EQUATOR on the Earth cartoon…

Order the objects below from smallest (1) to largest (3) _____Earth _____Moon _____Sun

Order the objects below from closest (1) to farthest (3) from Earth _____Sun _____Moon _____North Star

MILLIONS OF STARS… How many stars are in the Solar System?

TIME??? How do you think people kept track of time before the invention of clocks, watches, and numbered calendars? What is a day? What is a year?

WHAT TIME IS IT? If it is noon where you are, what time is it on the opposite side of Earth?

SUNNY SKY How does the Sun appear to move in the sky during the day? Draw the path of the sun on the diagram below: __________________________________________ EAST LOOKING SOUTH WEST Why does the Sun appear to rise in the East and set in the West?

EXPLAIN IT… Do stars and constellations appear to rise and set? (YES OR NO) Explain… Does the Earth move in space? (YES OR NO) Explain… (draw pictures if it helps)

A FEW MORE QUESTIONS… How many trips around the Sun have you made in your life? Why is it hotter in summer and colder in winter? (use drawings if it helps) Do we see the same constellations at different times of year? (YES OR NO) Explain…(use drawings if it helps)
