OBJECTIVES & LEARNING GOALS:ASTRONOMERS CAN:

Level 4

I CAN Investigate original and later evidence used to develop the concept of the heliocentric model of the Solar System.

Level 3

I CAN Compare and contrast various historical models of the Solar System, including geocentric and heliocentric using evidence from astronomers such as Aristotle, Copernicus, Kepler, and Galileo.

Level 2

I CAN Illustrate the difference between the heliocentric and geocentric models of the Solar System.

Level 1

With help, I can explain that astronomers have changed their ideas about how we should model the solar system.

• Explain the difference between “Geocentric” and “Heliocentric” models of the Solar system.

• Gather evidence from astronomers to support geocentric and heliocentric models.

Model where the Earth is the Center of the Solar SystemAll planets revolve around Earth.

The Sun is the center of the Solar system with planets, moons,And other objects revolving around it.

Greek philosopherwhose model placed the moon, Sun, planets, and stars in circlessurrounding Earth.

Developed “wheels on wheels”Geocentric model to explain Planet movements.

Developed first true Heliocentric model that still stands today.

Supported Copernicus’ modeland used redeveloped telescope to prove that objects can revolve around objectsother than Earth by observing Jupiter’s moons.

Level 1

With help, I can explain that astronomers have changed their ideas about how we should model the solar system.

Galileo’s discovery of Jupiter’s moons was the first ever proof that objects could orbit other objects. Up until that point they were just making good guesses on how they thought things could move. It truly set the stage for all other discoveries in Astronomy.

Level 4•Research how Solar flares affect life on Earth as well as compare and contrast the Sun and the Earth in terms of structures, movement, size, etc

Level 3•Model and describe solar properties including rotation, physical structure, convection, sunspots, solar flares, and prominences and connect them to conditions and events on Earth.

Level 2•Identify and label solar properties including rotation, physical structure, convection, sunspots, solar flares, and prominences.

Level 1•With help, I can describe some of the properties of the Sun.
