This is the second paft of the Clinical Research Education for Secondary Students and Teachers.

This is the fourth part of the Clinical Researcg Education for Secondary Students and Teachers.

Students will work with a partner or in groups to create a physical model that shows how the Earth's seasons are directly impacted by its axial tilt. After completing this activity, the student will have a better understanding of the Earth's position in space, the Earth's rotation axis and seasons. Students will also use the model to observe changes in insolation between the equator and poles.

In this lesson students will be able to identify that computers, like the solar system, complete predictable actions based on a set of variables. Students will learn about the solar system via Scratch.  They will explore block coding and computational thinking practices as they utilize Scratch as a tool for creativity, expression and learning about the Solar System. 

While working in groups to facilitate peer tutoring, students manipulate a hands-on, physical model to better comprehend the Earth's position in space, the Earth's rotation axis and seasons.
