Science Process
Put these in order:
record data
perform an invenstigation
ask a question
draw conclusions
question, investigation, data, conclusion
What will happen between noon today and noon tomorrow?
Earth will complete one rotation!
Why does the sun appear to move across the sky each day?
Earth's rotation
This causes day and night
Rotate
What step do you need to know to REPEAT an experiment? (data, procedure, hypothesis, conclusion)
procedure
How long does it take for earth to make one rotation?
24 hours/1 day
Explain how the sun, earth, and moon move.
The sun is still. Earth rotates on its axis and revolves around the sun. The moon revolves around Earth.
This causes the seasons
Revolve
Observation or inference?
The plant grew 2 cm.
observation
How long does it take earth to revolve around the sun?
1 year/365 days
Does the sun move each day?
This takes 24 hours
rotate
observation or inference? The plant needed fertilizer to grow better.
inference
How long does it take Earth to travel halfway around the sun?
six months
Explain why the sun appears to rise each morning.
Earth is rotating!
This takes 365 days
revolve
What do scientists use as evidence to support their explanations? (procedures, hypothesis, conclusions, data)
data
Explain the difference between rotation and revolution!
rotate = spin in place, revolve = travel in a circle around
What causes seasons?
Earth's tilt and orbit around the sun!
