Overview
Students will produce a tangible output, such as a 3D model of the solar system that shows all competencies listed below. You are not limited to a 3D model. What you want to do is up to your imagination, whatever you like. (NO slideshows!!) You must show how the sun's energy is generated from nuclear fusion within its core. You must be able to explain what happens during this process and what elements are formed during this process.
You must show/tell how its solar energy is transferred to other planets and tell how it influences them (scientifically-please-no fun facts!!). You must also show/ make a diagram of the sun's layers. With this diagram you will tell me how each layer (photoshere, convection zone, radiation zone, chromosphere) plays a role of the transfer of energy from the sun's to its surface and beyond. Please bring in any items that may help you make your project unique. You are able to use any supplies I have in the class. You will be expected to explain to me what your presentation is and how your are displaying these competencies.
