Group Teamwork - Cooperation, Role-Playing, Project Presentations Activate Background Knowledge PRE QUIZ Give written Pre Quiz with easy questions Explain and Discuss background knowledge of the students Start explaining some of the science terms Ask “Big Question” for first time: Which planet would you want to visit? PRE QUIZ Activate your knowledge! For lower levels, divide up the quiz in JIG-SAW style, give printed copies to groups of 3, then students share results Think about describing words: HOT, COLD, ARID, WATERY, GAS 1. What do you know about our Sun? 2. Mercury is closest to the Sun; Do you think its hot there? 3. Earth is the third planet from the Sun. How long is our trip around the sun? (Hint: how long is one year?) 4. Jupiter is our biggest planet; Does it have the heaviest gravity? 5. What do you think gravity is? 6. Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun; What do you think the rings are made of? 7. Uranus is the seventh planet; If it has no land, what is it made of? Next slides are Mini-Lecture #1 Introduction Show slides to class and read The Solar System is where we live Earth is in our Solar System Discuss any questions and ideas with a partner, then join the class discussion Our Sun Our Sun is in the middle of our Solar System It gives light and heat Solar Power uses the “free energy” from the Sun: solar means sun It is a medium-small star (it looks big because its close to us) Mini-Lecture given first time as power point presentation with 10 slides Mercury Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun It has a short orbit of 88 days Temperature is very hot because Sun is so close The FIRST Planet Venus Venus is the second planet from the Sun Has thick poisonous gas clouds “Glows in the dark” because it is so hot Called “The Evening Star” it can be seen near our Moon on most nights Stars twinkle when you look at them and planets do not they glow Earth Our Home Planet Earth is the third planet from the Sun; one orbit = 365 days Oceans cover about 2/3 of Earths surface One-third is land, desert and mountains Our atmosphere of “air” keeps Earth TEMPERATE not too hot nor too cold Mars the Fourth Planet Called “The Red Planet” because it is mostly made of IRON DUST which looks red from rust Mars is arid dry It is very rocky and like a desert Extreme temperatures hot in light, cold in dark Mars has “canals” caused by water erosion that look very, very old some water is frozen in the polar ice caps Jupiter The Gas Giant Jupiter is the fifth planet from our Sun Jupiter is the largest planet in solar system It has the heaviest gravity of all planets The giant “eye” in south is a giant storm Jupiter has 63 moons z Saturn z Saturn is the sixth planet It has RINGS made of frozen rocks and dust Saturn is very cold It is made of gas and liquid Saturn is the second largest planet Beautiful Saturn s Uranus s Uranus is the seventh planet from our Sun Uranus has no solid land It is made of very cold liquid and gas Uranus has 27 moons Neptune Neptune is the eighth planet from our Sun Neptune is made of very cold liquid and gas It has dramatic storms and wild weather Neptune has 13 moons f Pluto e Pluto is the ninth planet Pluto is a frozen ball of gas and liquid It is really small so small that it is no longer called a planet - I included Pluto because I still like it and think its a cool planet TRUE / FALSE QUIZ T / F 1. Earth is the largest planet in our solar system. T / F 2. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. T / F 3. Saturn has beautiful rings made of ice + dust. T / F 4. Earth has two moons T / F 5. Jupiter is a “gas giant”. T / F 6. Pluto can be seen from Earth. T / F 7. Venus can be seen from Earth. NAME _ DATE _ Numbers and Places of the Planets Give short review and lesson on numbers Explain Cardinals and Ordinals Match numerals and written names Practice orally and written Listen to teacher give place of each planet in solar system Repeat planet names orally Individual activity: Write SUN, FIRST, SECOND, THIRD, FOURTH, FIFTH, SIXTH, SEVENTH, EIGHTH, NINTH on your paper along the left side write the planet names next to their place in our Solar System Math and Spelling Making a Glossary Each student will make a personal glossary of vocabulary words and terms Words will be in alphabetical order Pairs work together to define words and check each others work Glossary will be checked by teacher Students add to Glossary every class Example of vocabulary words in a GLOSSARY 1. ORBIT An orbit is a path. Its the way something goes around an object in space. An orbit is a curved path, like a circle or an oval. The moon goes in orbit around Earth. We are in orbit right now - because Earth is following an orbit around the sun. The International Space Station orbits Earth. 2. SATELLITE An object in orbit is called a satellite. A satellite can be natural, like the moon. It can be human-made, like the space station. Earth is a natural satellite of the sun. All the planets are satellites of the Sun. note: students can add Spanish, Chinese or Cambodian translations also Grammar Activity - Build a Sentence Review simple Past Tense in English. Print activity and cut on lines. The left side is the sentence beginning. The right side has the endings. Teacher models activity and reads aloud. Teacher writes example sentence on the board. Students work in like-ability pairs to put the sentences together. Students reshuffle and re-do several times with different partners. Extension: students create a conversation using sentences and asking questions. Mini-Lecture #2 is Graphic Diagram Teacher draws very large diagram on board and answers class questions Graphic diagram is handed out Pairs study it together, answer questions and make sentences for # 5 and # 6 Students make own graphic diagram of our Solar System with felt pens 1. Teacher explains orbits again, how they are oval 2. Hand out printed diagram 3. Students make their own diagram of our Solar System Two Student Examples of Solar System Diagram Mini-Lecture # 3 is printed Print Mini-Lecture with 6 on a page Students read silently, then aloud in pairs to each other Internet research done at www.nasa.gov on different planets They add new vocabulary to Glossary Students share research in pairs, then in groups of four Part 1 Part 2 Mini-Lecture #3 can be printed with lines for notes Conversation with Solar System theme Conversation is printed, handed out Students listen to conversation Everyone reads aloud together Pairs read conversation to each other Switch partners and do again Next slide has original conversation - by Chaundel Johnson 2011 ASTRONAUT CONVERSATION Joseph: Hello Bob, how are you? Bobby: Hi Joseph; Im good. How about you? Joseph: Im great. I have good news. Bobby: Oh, what news do you have? Joseph: My oldest son wants to be an astronaut. Bobby: An as-tro-naut, whats that? Joseph: An astronaut is a spaceman. He goes into space. Bobby: Oh, like the ones who went to the moon? Joseph: Yes. They also go to the ISS. Bobby: What is the ISS? Joseph: ISS stands for International Space Station. Bobby: International means lots of nations, I think. Joseph: Thats right. About fifteen nations worked together on it. Bobby: Does your son want to go there? Joseph: Yeah. He wants to be a scientist on the ISS. Bobby: Your son is seventeen years old, right? Joseph: Yes, he graduates this spring. Bobby: Does a scientist have to go to college? Joseph: Yes, a scientist needs a degree from the university. Bobby: What university will he go to? Joseph: Hes going to UT in Austin. Bobby: Great! I know you are very proud of him. Joseph: Thank you. Someday he might go to Mars. Bobby: Wow, thats amazing! Joseph: First step is the ISS, then a nine month trip to Mars. Bobby: That sounds interesting. Joseph: Yes. Scientists are studying Mars. Bobby: What is Mars like? Joseph: Its very cold, dry and rocky. No air. Bobby: Wow. How do you know that? Joseph: Scientists sent two Rovers go-karts there. Bobby: What do the Rovers do? Joseph: The Rovers drive around and take pictures. Bobby: Thats amazing! Joseph: Yeah, we are learning about Mars. Bobby: I wish good luck to your son. Joseph: Thanks. It was good to see you. Bobby: It was great to talk with you. Conversation Practice with Science theme What about Mars?

Research Topics: Earths size, orbit, seasons & weather, earthquakes Teams made a small poster together to present to class. Pictures of Team Projects - ESL 2 Students Advanced Research ESL 3 Gave choice of 3 topics - Both internet and library books were used in pairs with poster and presentation of research when finished What is global warming? How does it affect our air? How does it affect our water? How does it affect the animals? What can we do to stop global warming? What does it mean to “Live Green”? What can we do to save the Earth? How can we save energy? How can we save resources? Should we recycle? Do you recycle? Should we use solar power, wind and geothermal power? How and why do earthquakes happen? How can we prepare for earthquakes? Have you ever been in an earthquake? What is a tsunami? Why is a tsunami so dangerous?
