Earth and Space Concepts

Revolution

• The movement of Earth around the Sun, taking one year to complete.

• The rotation of Earth on its axis, taking 24 hours to complete.

• The process of a planet moving away from the Sun over time.

• The orbit of the Moon around the Earth, taking about 27 days to complete.

Day and Night

• The cycle caused by Earth's rotation, resulting in periods of daylight and darkness.

• The change in seasons due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.

• The effect of the moon's phases on the Earth's surface.

• The variation in temperature between day and night.

Seasons

• caused by Earth's tilt and its orbit around the Sun.

  spring, summer, autumn, and winter

• caused by the distance from the Moon.

• caused by ocean currents and tides.

• caused by volcanic activity.

Northern and Southern Poles

• The two points on Earth where its axis of rotation meets its surface.

• The regions where the Earth's magnetic field is strongest.

• The areas with the coldest temperatures on Earth.

• The locations of the highest mountain peaks on Earth.

One Year

• The time it takes for Earth to complete one revolution around the Sun.

  Also, 365 days

• The time it takes for the Moon to orbit the Earth.

• The time it takes for Earth to rotate on its axis once.

• The time it takes for the Earth to complete a full cycle of seasons.

Northern and Western Hemisphere

• Where we live

• In the Southern Hemisphere

• In the Eastern Hemisphere

• In the Arctic Circle

One Rotation

• Causes days and nights

  The time it takes for Earth to complete one full spin on its axis, approximately 24 hours.

• Is the time it takes for Earth to orbit the Sun

• Is the time it takes for the Moon to orbit the Earth

• Is the time it takes for Earth to complete one full orbit around the Sun

Gravitational Pull

• The attraction between two objects due to the force of gravity.

• The attraction between two objects due to the force of gravity.

• The force that causes objects to float in the air.

• The resistance encountered by an object moving through a fluid.

Rotation

• The spinning of Earth on its axis, causing day and night.

• The movement of Earth around the Sun, resulting in seasons.

• The tilt of Earth's axis, affecting climate patterns.

• The gravitational pull of the Moon, influencing tides.

Northern Hemisphere

• The half of Earth that is north of the equator.

• The region of Earth that experiences the most sunlight.

• The area where the North Pole is located.

• The part of Earth that is south of the equator.
