Copies of homework assignments 


Journal Moon

Imagine that no one on Earth used a calendar.  You need to develop a new calendar to make sense of the chaos. For your new calendar development you need to include the following: 1- describe the system you would use to organize days/months/years (for example our calendar organizes time based on the Earth’s rotation and revolution), 2-how and when would the different season occur, and 3- how time would be established (night and day). 

OR
There are parts of the Earth (Arctic and Antarctic Circle-Iceland, Sweden, Russia, NW Canada, etc) that experience “Midnight Sun” (sun never falls below the horizon- 24 hours sunlight) and “Polar Night” ( sun does not rise). 
Would you rather live through the “Midnight Sun” or “Polar Night” for 6 months? 

Journal Planet 

Compare and contrast the inner and outer planets. Information about each planet ( you do not need to include Pluto) needs to be included in inner planets, outer planets, or the similarity section of the Venn diagram. The attached Venn diagram can be used to complete this entry.
