55 Today s Goal Understand what causes changes in seasons.
56 Teacher Demos and Explanation Seasons Day and Night
57 Teacher Explanation *The angle at which the sun s rays strike the Earth s surface is very important. The more direct the rays, the more energy each square unit of the surface receives and absorbs. *The Equator receives the most consistent direct light. (the length of day and night does not change over the year) *The North and South Pole receive the most inconsistent and indirect light (the length of day and night changes drastically over the year). Demonstrate-Day and Night Rotation and 1 Year Orbit/Revolution
58 Analyze the model The animation shows the Earth revolving around the Sun and the direct and indirect light the Earth receives from the Sun. 1. What does the yellow dot on the Earth represent? 2. Describe what is occurring at the yellow dot? 3. Longest Day and Shortest Day
