Element Poster Instructions
1. Finish, print, and turn in your Element Poster. Here are the instructions:
You are going to create an Element Poster today. You may create your poster on a Power Point slide, Word document or drawn on a sheet of paper. You may use my sample poster as a template for your element's information.
This assignment will be worth 50 points! You may view a sample poster by opening the following document:
Mrs. Dalrymple’s science class conducted investigations to see which factors affect temperature change. Below are the conclusions each group made.
1. As the wattage(amount of energy) increased, the temperature increased. 2. As the distanceincreased, the temperature decreased. 3. As the angleincreased (more direct), the temperature increased. 4. As the timeincreased, the temperature increased. 5. The darker the color, the higher the temperature.
One of the above conclusions best explains why Earth experiences changes in temperature during different seasons. Which one do you think is the correct reason?
Research Assignment: Follow the links below and read to learn why Earth experiences changes in temperature during different seasons. In your notebook, write 3 facts you learned from the research.
