A Star’s Life Due May 2, 2016 Assignment: 1. Read the two life cycle assignments (part I and II). 2. Create a graphic organizer that summarizes what you are reading. 3. Check your answers to the questions of part I (summary questions at the end) and part II (sections 1, 2, 4 and 5) in schoology. Note: the true/false section (Those A-Maz-Ing Stars) will lead you to the right answer so no schoology assignment is available. 4. Using your graphic organizer, reading, and questions, you and one partner will be building a digital slide show of a Star’s Life Cycle. 5. The digital slide show will incorporate the definitions and comments on the back of this page as well as images from Google that match the definition. a. Each definition/slide should incorporate the scientific description (from the reading) with an explanation in your own words. b. Search the internet for an appropriate real image. If a real life image is not available, please state this is an artist’s rendering. c. Please share the slide show with me when you create in Google slides. All stars begin as a ball of gas & Dust in space This is the death of a large star by explosion So massive light cannot escape. The mass of 3 suns and about 6 miles across The star has used all of its hydrogen fuel. The center shrinks. Left over centers of old stars remain at this stage. Nuclear fusion occurs at Left over from a supernova the core converting and very massive Hydrogen to Helium. A star’s longest stage. The stage of our SUN The stars expands to 10 – 100 times its original size These are small hot stars near the end of their life. Generates a HUGE amount of light, brighter than a whole Galaxy, and may be seen with naked eye. The materials are squeezed together so hard by gravity electrons and protons become neutrons.
