Earth/Space Systems Unit 10 Lesson 1-6 from the sun. Comets Unit 11 Lesson 1-3 Dwarf Planets compare the Gas Giants Football-Field Solar characteristics of Pluto to the Terrestrial planets and explain its Gravity System designation as a dwarf Revolution Round and Round Earth planet. Rotation We Go Orbit Tilting into Season design and interpret a Phases Telling Tides scale model of the solar Axial Tilt system. Solar System Unique explain the role of Tide Cycles gravity in the solar system. Ptolemy Aristotle compare and contrast Copernicus revolution and rotation and Galileo apply these terms to the Exploration relative movements of Artificial Satellites planets and their moons. Mission Satellites model and describe how day and night and the phases of the moon occur. model and describe how axial tilt and its Earth’s annual orbit around the sun cause the seasons. describe the unique characteristics of planet Earth. discuss the relationship between the gravitational pull of the moon and the cycle of tides. compare and contrast the ideas of Ptolemy,
