Miss Akifa introduces the topic of whether the sun moves. She poses a question about the sun's movement and explains that while it appears to move across the sky, it is actually the Earth that spins around the sun. The video includes a discussion among three girls with differing opinions, and the correct explanation is given that the sun's apparent movement is due to Earth's rotation. Visual aids are used to illustrate the sun's path from sunrise to sunset. The video concludes with an exercise for students to complete and submit.
