YES THE BELOW DATES ARE CORRECT, BECAUSE NEXT WEEK THE SCHEDULE IS A LITTLE MIXED UP! 

 

1/5/9 - Due Thursday, May 16th 

2/7/8- Due Wednesday, May 15th  

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? Explain your choice!
