Long ago, people used the sun to tell time before clocks were invented. In this engaging reading passage and activity, students will learn about the fascinating world of sundials and how they were used to keep track of time.
This worksheet provides a fun and educational opportunity for students to explore the concept of sundials and their importance in ancient timekeeping. The worksheet includes step-by-step instructions for building a sundial using common materials such as a paper plate, clay, and straw.
In this science reading passage and worksheet, we will explore the wonders of the sun and its daily journey across the sky. We'll learn how the sun provides light and warmth, making our days bright and cheerful. But have you ever wondered where the sun goes at night? Let's find out together!
In a fun experiment, your students will partner up and use a sticky note and a flashlight to simulate the sun's movement. By rotating the sticky note on a partner's belly, students will create their very own sunset and sunrise.
This is a good video to help introduce or reinforce differing physical and cultural regions within Arizona.
This is a good video, yet kind of sad, about the use of Laika the dog as the first living organism to enter space during the Space Race of the Cold War.
This is a great video that shows Apollo 11, orbiting the Moon, and the Lunar Module descending and landing on the Moon, and Neil Armstrong taking the first step on Moon, and saying, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind!" These events were part of the Space Race during the Cold War.
This video provides a glimpse into the preparation and recovery steps for the launch of Alan Shepard, the first American in space during the Cold War's Space Race. It highlights significant events during the launch, and how Shepard's journey impacted the United States' space program.

This is a great video that shows a general simulation of how the launch, orbiting, and re-entry worked for John Glenn as he beacme the first American to orbit the Earth during the Space Race of the Cold War.
This video isn't so much about Thor's hammer as it is about the density of dying stars. I am only assuming that Vsauce, the video creator, did the research, but this video would make a great conversation starter when talking about density and specifically about the density of collapsed stars.
When you are teaching a unit on Astronomy, inevitably you are going to get into a discussion with students on the possibility of life outside of our own solar system. This video asks people on the street whether or not they believe in aliens. The responses are great to listen to. The discussion of the video is more about the knowledge of how vast a galaxy really is. If people understood how far a light year actually is, it would be less likely that anybody would believe in the alien types that visit the Earth.
