Standard(s) being addressed: SC.4.E.5.1: Observe that the patterns of stars in the sky stay the same although they appear to shift across the sky nightly, and different stars can be seen in different seasons. SC.4.E.5.2: Describe the changes in the observable shape of the moon over the course of about a month. SC.4.E.5.3: Recognize that Earth revolves around the Sun in a year and rotates on its axis in a 24-hour day. SC.4.E.5.4: Relate that the rotation of Earth (day and night) and apparent movements of the Sun, Moon, and stars are connected. SC.4.E.5.5: Investigate and report the effects of space research and exploration on the economy and culture of Florida. Your goal is to ride the bike by yourself! Level 4 Expert I meet level 1, 2, and 3 and can… Constellations Mural - each student is assigned a specific constellation and creates it on a sheet of black paper. They research information about it including its name and location. All are displayed on a large wall area creating an accurately mapped group of constellations with their information. Students design and create a model that demonstrates the axis and rotation of the earth and the cause of seasons as well as day and night. Level 3 Meeting the Goal I meet level 1 and 2 and can… Report out the effects of space research and exploration on the economy and culture of Florida. Discuss the relationship and connection between the rotation of the Earth and the apparent movements of the sun, moon and stars. Explain Earth’s revolution around the Sun and rotation on its axis. Differentiate between rotation and revolution. Describe the observable changes in the shape of the moon over a month’s time. Describe why constellations appear to shift across the night sky. Explain why different stars can be seen in different seasons. Level 2 Almost There Level 1 Getting Started Level 0 Not on the Bike I can… Research information about space exploration in Florida. Identify that rotation of the Earth causes day and night. Recognize different shapes of the moon, but am unable to discuss why the shape of the moon changes over a period of time. Identify from illustrations, the same objects in the night sky during different seasons. I know… Some facts about space research and exploration in Florida. How much time it takes for the Earth to revolve around the sun. How much time it takes for the Earth to rotate on its axis. Constellation, star, seasons, patterns, rotation, revolution, axis, appear With help, I can… Recognize different shapes of the moon. Identify patterns, constellations and objects in the night sky. I can… Identify the moon, stars and night sky.
