1 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Comparing Objects in Space How do the objects above compare to Earth in terms of size, distance from the Sun, and atmospheric composition? Jupiter Betelgeuse The Moon SC.8.E.5.3 1

2 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Distances in Space Which distance and time are most reasonable for each image? Distance: Less than 1 light year Distance: 100,000 light years Time for travel: approximately 12 yrs Time for travel: approximately 1 billion yrs SC.8.E.5.1 2

3 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Our Universe SC.8.E.5.2 Which statement above most accurately describes our universe? Explain your choice. All of the billions of stars and galaxies A system of planets and moons Thousands of stars around a black hole All of the known galaxies 3

4 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Properties of Stars Compare the properties of Vega, our Sun, and Alpha Centauri (include brightness, size, and temperature) SC.8.E.5.5 4

5 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Properties of the Sun SC.8.E.5.6 Terms Chromosphere Convection Zone Core Corona Photosphere Prominence Radiation Zone Solar Flare Sunspots I 5

6 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Role of Gravity SC.8.E.5.4 Explain the role that planets & gravity had in creating the Sun, planets, stars, etc. 6

7 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Models of the Solar System Label the models above as heliocentric or geocentric. Explain your reasoning SC.8.E.5.8 7

8 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Seasons and Moon Phases What causes the seasons and what causes moon phases? Think about: -When it is Summer in England (UK), what season is it in Florida? -How are the Earth, Moon, and Sun lined up when there is a new moon? SC.8.E.5.9 8

9 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Eclipses What happens in an eclipse? What are the two types? Think about: Can more people see a Solar or Lunar eclipse? Explain your answer SC.8.E.5.9 9

10 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Tides What causes tides? Think about: Why do opposite sides of the Earth have high tide at the same time? SC.8.E.5.9 10

11 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Rock Cycle SC.7.E.6.2 Which type of rock changes shape due to heat and pressure? Which type is formed from hardened magma? Which one is formed from eroded and weathered sediment? What are the processes that change rocks? Which ones happen on the surface and which ones happen below the surface of Earth? 11

12 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Weathering, Erosion, Deposition Explain how water is changing the landscape in each image above. Be sure to indicate whether the image shows weathering, erosion, or deposition SC.6.E.6.1 12

13 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Landforms Label the images above as either a dune, delta, or sinkhole. Which of these features can be found in Florida? SC.6.E.6.2 13

14 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Human Impact Describe what effect the human activities shown above will have on the Earth Cutting down ForestsOil Spill SC.7.E.6.6 14

15 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Geologic Time Explain how the images above are examples of evidence of Earth’s surface changing over time. Volcanic Eruption Eroded Mountain Range Dry Sea Bed SC.7.E.6.4 15

16 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Measuring Age of Earth Which organism shown above is the oldest? How do you know? Is there a method that could be used to find their ages more precisely? SC.7.E.6.3 16

17 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Plate Tectonics How can volcanoes be created by either colliding or separating boundaries? What are the 3 types of plate movements? Where are the plates located in the Earth? SC.7.E.6.5, SC.7.E.6.7 17

18 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Layers of the Earth Which layer is the: thickest? hottest? densest? where convection takes place? liquid? SC.7.E.6.1 18

19 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Spheres SC.6.E.7.4 Identify what spheres are shown in each of the pictures above? 19

20 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Weather Patterns SC.6.E.7.2, SC.6.E.7.3 How does the ocean circulation pattern shown above effect Florida’s weather? What will happen to the weather when the cold air reaches the warm Florida air? 20

21 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Weather vs Climate SC.6.E.7.6 Which map above shows Weather and which shows Climate? Explain your choice. 21

22 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Atmosphere How do the layers of the atmosphere work together to protect life on Earth? SC.6.E.7.9 22

23 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Sun Heating Earth Explain why the wind patterns shown above occur. SC.6.E.7.5 23

24 Created by: R. Hallett-Njuguna, SCPS Radiation, Conduction, Convection Which type of heat transfer does each image represent? SC.6.E.7.1 24
