Sun-Earth-moon System
2
Earth
3
What technology has helped us understand our earth??
Has a Spherical Shape Evidence? How do we know?? What technology has helped us understand our earth??
4
Axis: The invisible line that Earth rotates upon.
Rotation: The movement of Earth around its axis Revolution: The movement of Earth around the Sun.
6
Earth Continued Magnetic field/Axis
When you see a compass needle pointing north this is evidence of Earths magnetic field Is this pole the same as our North pole?
7
What causes changing seasons??.... Model the seasons changing
Earth Continued What causes changing seasons??.... Model the seasons changing
8
Seasons Solstice=Summer and Winter Equinoxes= Fall and Spring
9
The moon Why does the moon shine???
10
The moon The moon surface reflects the suns light! Phases of the moon
New Waxing (Right side reflecting) Gibbous or Crescent Full Waning (Left side reflecting)
11
The Moon A visual of the moon phases:
12
Oreo Phases Use Oreos to show all the phases of the moon on your groups plate. Use the plate to label each phase correctly Check with me when your done. Enjoy!!
13
What are some Causes of eclipses? Solar Eclipse? vs Lunar Eclipse?
The moon Eclipses What are some Causes of eclipses? Solar Eclipse? vs Lunar Eclipse?
14
The moon Solar Eclipse
15
The moon Lunar Eclipse
16
Craters: Depressions on the moon
Maria: lava filled and cooled dark spots where craters once existed
17
Where did the moon come from??
18
The moon The impact theory: a meteor hit earth, ejected material off, the material orbited, condensed and formed the moon.
19
The moon
20
Review/reinforcements
phases of the moon and eclipses crash course moon phases
21
The moons phases/shadow? Days? Years?
Bell Work What is the cause for Earths Seasons? The moons phases/shadow? Days? Years?
22
What do you think may cause the ocean tides and currents?
Ocean Tides & currents What do you think may cause the ocean tides and currents?
23
Tide: The gravitational pull of the moon and the rotation of the earth, coupled with the centripetal force of the earth, causes two high tides and two low tides throughout the day.
24
Spring and Neap Tide Spring Tide: Highest of the high tide.. Created when the sun, moon, and Earth align creating a larger gravitational pull. Neap Tide: Lowest of the low tides… created when the sun, moon, and earth create a 90Degree angle and cancel each others gravitational pull out
25
Lets practice this gravitational pull/motion that causes tides
Balloon Tides Lets practice this gravitational pull/motion that causes tides High tide and low tide 2 X a day!!
26
Reinforcements deoID=13223 … slightly monotone and 80’s but good info deoID=20989 more grown up version
27
Extension Moon and Earth tides and-climate/tides.htm
28
The currents are generated from the forces acting upon the water like the earth's rotation, the wind, the temperature and salinity differences and the gravitation of the moon.
29
I’m thinking of a word…. Review Ideas
Earth, Sun, and Moon Crescent vs Gibbous Axis Eclipse Rotation Solar vs Lunar Revolution Tides Seasons Currents Solstice vs Equinox Phases Waxing vs Waning
