Today in class we learned about the patterns of the moon's physical appearance in Activity 79. Homework for students are to complete sheets Act. 79.1 and 79.2, and answer questions 1-4. The textbook has not been working for students, so I have attached the student sheets as well as a PDF of Act. 79.

However, students should complete average day length and temperatures in December, March, June, and September for ALL cities, not just one (on SS 76.2). Students will list the Earth's distance from the Sun on SS 76.1.
Today students completed Act. 74 by making observations of data in the textbook and creating a line graph for two years worth of sun angle and daylight length data. Students should graph year 2005 on SS 75.1a and graph year 2006 on SS 75.1b, then tape them together to make one graph. Homework for students is to finish the graph and complete analysis questions 1-7.
