Science Writing Prompts Earth, Sun, and Moon Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Note to teachers: I use these slides after I have taught the lesson. These writing prompts are useful in assessing student’s abilities to think beyond the basic facts and apply what they have learned to real life concepts These writing prompts are a portion of a larger unit that will be uploaded soon! Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Directions Observe the following animation and answer the writing prompts. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Explain what system this is a model of. Give as many facts as you can think of that you have learned about this system. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Explain why the moon appears to change shape in the night sky over a month’s time. You may find it useful to draw a model of this phenomenon to help explain. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon We use models to represent things so that we can understand them. However, these models have limitations that keep them from being 100% accurate. Explain some limitations that this model has. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Why is the same side of the moon a light color and the opposite side dark the whole way around the earth? Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Explain how this phenomenon occurs and why only a small portion of people on earth actually see this total eclipse. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Explain what would happen if the moon were on the other side of the earth. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Earth, Sun, and Moon Explain why we don’t have lunar and solar eclipses every month. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

Ocean tides Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline

How does the moon effect the ocean tides? Why do we experience high and low tides twice daily? Explain the two types of high tides and how they work. Describe some limitations to this model. Copyright 2013 Matthew Cline
