  1. Day 1: Objective:Students will understand that the appearance of the moon changes in a predictable cycle as it orbits Earth and as Earth rotates on its axis. What are our “I Can” statements?

  2. Lesson Title: ROTATION AND REVOLUTION

  3. Essential Question • What are axis, rotation, and revolution and how do they relate to the sun, moon and earth connection?

  4. Earth’s Rotation • Rotation is the spinning of the Earth on its axis. • The time for one rotation is 24 hours. • It rotates counterclockwise. • The speed of rotation 24,855 miles/24 hr or 1,038 miles/hr Click image to view Earth’s rotation.

  5. Earth’s Revolution • A revolution occurs as the earth moves around the sun. • Time for one revolution = 365 1/4 days = 8,766 hours • The speed of earth’s revolution is about 18 miles per second.

  6. Earth’s Revolution

  7. An example: Another way to think of these vocabulary terms is to go to the world of ice skating. As you skate around the ice rink, that is like a revolution, or orbit. If you spin on the toe of your skate, you are completing a rotation.

  8. Earth’s Orbit • The path an object takes as it revolves around another object.

  9. Around and Around We Go • Every second, that you sit in this classroom, the Earth's orbital motion carries you about 18 miles through space.

  10. Let’s Review & Practice • http://utahscience.oremjr.alpine.k12.ut.us/sciber06/6th/moon/html/rotate.htm

  11. What direction does the moon rotate? • The same as earth. Answer.

  12. SPACE EARTH MOVEMENTS

  13. 1. The Earth spinning on its axis. Rotation Revolution 2. Going around a larger body. Rotation Revolution Revolution 3. 24 hours. Rotation Revolution Round One 4. Causes the Earth’s seasons. Rotation Revolution 5. Creates a year. Rotation Revolution 6. The moon going around Earth. Rotation Revolution

  14. Identify the motion being shown in each of these pictures. Each team must write their answers for each figure in the form of a question. Figure #1 Rotation Revolution Planet Round Two Figure #2 Earth Rotation Revolution

  15. Question Starters: After you have finished taking notes, it is important to add questions about the material that you can later use to quiz yourself or a friend. Turn to “Question Starters” in your interactive notebook.

  16. Awesome job today students! Now finish off today’s lesson by completing the summary at the bottom of the Cornell Notes page. Remember: I am only looking for 2 to 3 sentences.
