Science Challenge (week 1)

Activity
For the my science activity, we will use the light sensor inside (with no sun) as well as outside (with sun) to see that the sun is a source of heat and light.

The Content
Standard 5 - Students will understand that the sun is the main source of heat and light for things living on Earth. They will also understand that the motion of rubbing objects together may produce heat.
Objective 1 - Provide evidence showing that the sun is the source of heat and light for Earth.

The Pedagogy
Plan and conduct a simple experiment. Observing. Measuring. These work with the content because we will conduct the experiment, then use the data to explain what occurred inside and outside.

The Technology
Light Sensor. Digital camera. We will use the light sensor to measure the different readings inside (no sun) and outside (sunny). We will use the camera to document where the readings take place.
