*Still grading the Disaster Movie projects!  Should be completed by Tuesday!*

*Sun Diagram Models are due at the end of class tomorrow!*

AGENDA:

  • Discuss rules of Sun Model Diagram

Your final model:
    • Should be a visual diagram (85% picture vs. 15% words)  that should answer/explain the answer to the two following questions:
      1.  How does the Sun produce energy and how does the energy get to Earth?
      2. How long will the Sun produce energy?
      Should be done without the use of large paragraphs. However, small, short explanations of 1 or 2 sentences are ok.
      Should be original enough in design and format that it would not be considered a copy of anyone else's.  The best way to achieve this is simply to do your own original work.
      Should not be plagiarized from the book or the internet in any way.  Again, this is easy to achieve if you just do your own work.
      Remember:
      DO YOUR FIRST WORK IN PENCIL BEFORE YOU COLOR OR USE PEN!
      Think about how the diagramatic models in the National Geographic magazines were constructed.
      Think about what information you need to include – information that is not necessary will not improve your diagram and will often make it less effective.
      Make everything neat and clear.
      Use neat, careful writing.
  • Work on models - due at the end of class tomorrow!

HOMEWORK:
  1. Sun Diagram Model
  2. Organize your notebook - Due Friday!
