Open up your laptops, go to MrHyatt.rocks, and do today’s bellwork Scale Scale Description 4 Through independent work beyond what was taught in class, you could: investigate the location of seasonal constellations in the local sky. predict location of constellations at future times. determine the celestial equator, latitude and position of the Pole Star for a given position on the Earth. determine the distances of stars in a given constellation to each other and to Earth. 3 You will be able to: describe and apply the coordinate system used to locate objects in the sky. distinguish the various methods of measuring astronomical distances and apply each in appropriate situations. 2 determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other astronomy specific words and phrases as they are used in context to relevant topics label diagrams with degree measurements describe how or why different units of measurement are needed for distances in space 1 You will be able to list the different units of measurement needed to measure distances in space

Time for the HONORS part of this class This is hard! This is an Honors class, so you should expect to be challenged It is a college level lab, because this is a college level course (though slowed down) If you do all the reading, watch the videos, go through each thing individually, and work together, it’s really actually not that hard If you go right to the answers, you wont be able to do this. I don’t want you to just fill in blanks for a grade, I want you to learn about astronomy.

Are you confused? Why don't you watch these?

How do you measure places, or get the numbers to show up?

How do you change your latitude?

How do you put a star on here?

Where is the NCP?

The East is in the wrong direction.

How do you add hours?

The NCP is at the top right?

How do you put the big dipper on here?

I don’t know what to do….
