Overview
This lesson is to get students familiar with all aspects of Space Exploration. They will have an understanding of the sun, planets, and satellites. This lesson is interactive with a video and space jeopardy.
Space Chapter 1
Today, we are learning about space and all of the different components.
As we learn about space, we will read an online book about the Milky Way galaxy.
Objective: Students will be able to define the differences orally and visually about the contents of space.
Oklahoma Academic Standards:
2.ESS1.1 Use information from several sources to provide evidence that Earth events can occur quickly or slowly.
2.PS1.3 Make observations to construct an evidence-based account of how an object made of a small set of pieces can be disassembled and made into a new object.
2.7.R Students will explore and compare ideas and topics in multimodal content.
Step-By-Step
We will watch the Solar System Video on YouTube to understand what the Milky Way is. Link Included
We will then as a big group talk about the different parts of the solar system. This will include the characteristics of each part of the space. To include, the sun, planets, satellites, and Milky Way galaxy.
We will read a short story on Read Works about Explore Our Solar System. This also includes questions about what they read.
In the last part of this lesson, we will do Space Jeopardy. This will go over everything that we have learned and is interactive.
If we have time we can do a Kahoot game with questions on Space. I love this game and gives them the opportunity to reinforce what they have learned.
Assessments:
Most of this lesson is assessed summatively. We are doing most of this lesson together except for the questions. The questions will be put on the smart/whiteboard and they will write answers on a piece of paper. This will be graded formatively.
Closing:
We will collectivly talk and I will ask them how they feel about the lesson. What was their favorite part of this lesson? Do they have any questions?
