1 Essential Question for the next 2 weeks:
Open up your laptops, go to MrHyatt.rocks, and do today’s bell work Essential Question for the next 2 weeks: How does the Moon affect us here on Earth? Scale Scale Description 4 Through independent work beyond what was taught in class, students could (examples include, but are not limited to): research current and past earth and sun conditions. investigate causes and possible solutions for global climate change. compare and contrast the patterns in the organization and distribution of matter in the sun, earth, moon system. compare and contrast different solar events and their impact on earth. 3 understand how the motions of the sun, stars and planets as observed from Earth relate to the motions of the Earth and other planets in space. understand how the movement and position of Earth influences life on Earth. be able to differentiate between astronomy and astrology. 2 determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other astronomy specific words and phrases relating to the Earth, Sun and Moon illustrate the patterns of distribution of matter in the sun, earth, moon system. list the physical properties of the Earth, Sun and Moon. describe the key parts of the Earth, Sun and Moon System 1 show the patterns of distribution of matter in the sun, earth, moon system. select from a list the physical properties of the sun, earth and moon. list the key parts of the structure of earth, sun and moon. If chrome doesn’t work, use Internet Explorer

2 Go back and answer this question from last week
Why does the moon’s shape appear to change over time? Also a reminder. The hands on activity that we did on Friday (and that you still see on the lab tables to your left) is due at Midnight If you need to finish this, you can come in after school today

3 Tides (Write this in your science journal) (leave a space to answer)
Today’s essential question: How does the moon influence earth’s oceans?

4 What is a Tide? Tides are created because the Earth and the moon are attracted to each other because of gravity. The moon tries to pull at anything on the Earth to bring it closer. Spring Tides When the moon is full or new, the gravitational pull of the moon and sun are combined. At these times, the high tides are very high and the low tides are very low. Copy this 

5 What is a Tide? Copy this 
Tides are created because the Earth and the moon are attracted to each other because of gravity. The moon tries to pull at anything on the Earth to bring it closer. Neap Tides During the moon's quarter phases the sun and moon work at right angles, causing the bulges to cancel each other. The result is a smaller difference between high and low tides and is known as a neap tide. Copy this 

6 tides Both the sun and the moon influence earth’s tides.
Tides happen 2 times a day, 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Tides change frequently. They change because of the structure of the body of water, the alignment of the sun and moon and the distance of the moon.

9 Write down 2 things:

10 2 More Things

11 You don’t have to write one thing. You get to write THREE.

12 Summarize your notes By answering the question from the beginning of class. How does the moon influence earth’s oceans?

13 Summarize your notes Then answer this…

14 Now for the fun part: Homework
Go home, watch the EDPuzzle, and write down why it is wrong in your science journal Most of what I just told you is wrong!! This new information will DEFINITELY BE ON THE TEST It is a little confusing at some points, but you should get the overall idea, which is the important part Due at Midnight
