Event

Presentation at 7, covering:
Activity 1-Students should recognize that the Sun seems to move across the sky throughout the day. They may not understand that the Sun is stationary, and it is Earth’s rotation that makes the Sun seem to move. We will be making sundials and watching them throughout the day to recognize the movement of the sun through the sky.
Activity 2- Is exploring the moon, how it moves in space, and how it reflects light.
Activity 3- Is about the night sky, stars and constellations.
We will do some solar viewing until the sun sets, and they want some night viewing, but I’m not sure how late they’re planning on running. I’ve pointed out night viewing won’t be good until about 9 or so. I’m trying to pin down how late they’re going to run this.
