NewPath Learning™ Structure of the Sun 3D Model Making Kit

Description

The Structure of the Sun 3D Model Making Kit allows you to teach about the exterior and interior structure of our Sun!

• Your students begin by making their model of the Sun, and then they use it to learn about the structure of the Sun.
• First they look at the exterior features of the Sun.
  • This includes the Sun's atmosphere (corona, chromosphere), the Sun's surface (photosphere), and active phenomena such as sun spots, solar prominences and solar flares.
• Next they look at the interior structure of the Sun and what each layer does.
  • This covers the core, radiation (radiative) zone, tachocline, and convection (convective) zone.
• The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models working cooperatively.
• The comprehensive Teacher Resource Guide included provides illustrated readings, activities, key vocabulary and an assessment, along with teaching opportunities for students to Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend and Evaluate their understanding of the concepts presented.
