Today at Hayden I learned how to make and use a sky wheel. The sky wheel is used to figure out which constellation are in the sky everyday. Examples of constellations are: Leo, Little Dipper, Big Dipper, Lyra etc.
Also today I learned what causes seasons, which are the earth’s tilt, and the direct or indirect [...]
Today we learned many things. For example, we learned about constellations, their names, and most importantly, learned how to use the sky wheel. I loved the part when
Today we continued our astronomy unit. We went to the star lab planetarium. In the lab, we learned about constellations, while learning mythology. Everything else was basically a review of what we learned in school, such as HR diagram, solstices and equinoxes, horizon and zenith, various stars, and cause of the seasons. It was fun [...]
Today we learned about all the seasons and constellations. One thing that we learned about the seasons is that they are caused by Earth’s 23-½ degree tilt. We also learned about how when a star explodes it is called a supernova and then creates a black hole. Also when a star is born it is [...]
Today I learned a lot of stuff. We learned about the seasons and their reasons for each time they come. We also learned about constellations like Orion’s Belt. And we got to see them on a small cave. It was cool and I hope we have times like this ones more.
Today I made a star wheel and saw peoples zodiac signs. We went to the star lab and saw stars and learned names of stars. It was ok because, it was too dark and we were fooling around too much. We talked about a lot of star facts, we learned that the stars are made [...]
Today we were learning about astronomy. We learned about the seasons, about the tilt of the Earth’s axis and direct and indirect sunlight. We saw constellations like the Ursa Major, Leo and much more. We learned about mythology. We made sky wheels.
Since Janki was absent today, was partner-less. D:
Spent the day re-learning eighth grade science – rotation, revolution, constellations, seasons, star classification, and whatnot.
Went to the StarLab on two occasions today; nearly got blinded by the lack of light inside the igloo-like dome. Saw constellations of stars itself, animated Greek mythology of the stars, and animated [...]
Today I learned astronomy and it was fun. I learn about the earth and it’s angle, did you know that the earth is on a 23 and a half degree tilt. We also learned about constellations and we were in a star lab, we learned all the stars in the evening sky and all the [...]
Lateisha- today, was once again a very fun day at Hayden. I learned even more then I did before the long break we had. Today, I learned the reasons for the seasons that we go through. I also learned where the sun rises and set for each season. I hope the next time I come [...]
