Study Notes
Student Activities for Understanding the Sun
-
Students build models to illustrate solar nuclear fusion. These models may be diagrams, illustrations, or charts.
-
Students grasp the connection between light's wavelength and energy. Shorter wavelengths, like blue light, carry more energy than longer wavelengths, like red light.
-
Students create a model of the sun to show its size, layers, and the processes occurring in each.
-
Students learn and categorize the electromagnetic spectrum, from lowest to highest energy: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays.
