What educators are saying

This was an excellent resource. My students were engaged with the lessons and picked up on the concepts quickly in the discussions that followed.
Our science curriculum isn't NGSS aligned so I needed to supplement and I bought this unit to test it out. I LOVE it. I will be saving up for the rest of the units

    Description

    Your class is going to love this! With 6 weeks of space lessons, your students will conduct investigations, explore how parachutes impact the effect of gravity, learn why the Sun appears so bright, explore changing shadows, write claims with evidence and reasoning, design models, and engineer parachutes. This bundle is perfect for NGSS 5-PS2-1, 5-ESS1-1, and 5-ESS1-2.

    The units include teacher directions, examples, a schedule of activities, notebook ideas, a multiple choice assessment, and all the printables you need!

    Check out the free planning guide for the full year.

    Units

    Earth in Motion 5-ESS1-2

    8 Days

    Start with your study of space by learning about changing shadows and Earth's motion. Investigate shadows and changing daylight to learn why shadows' length and position change throughout the day.

    Stars 5-ESS1-1

    10 Days

    Continue your study by exploring the apparent brightness and relative distance of stars to learn why we see the Sun during the day and other stars at night.

    Gravity and Parachutes 5-PS2-1

    10 Days

    Learn about the effects of gravity and engineer a parachute.

    Rationale

    I’m here to connect standards-based learning with engagement and to connect college and career readiness with the natural world. Let’s work together to help students explore, learn, and experience science.

    Let’s do this!

    Standards

    to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
    NGSS5-ESS1-2
    Represent data in graphical displays to reveal patterns of daily changes in length and direction of shadows, day and night, and the seasonal appearance of some stars in the night sky. Examples of patterns could include the position and motion of Earth with respect to the sun and selected stars that are visible only in particular months. Assessment does not include causes of seasons.
    NGSS5-ESS1-1
    Support an argument that differences in the apparent brightness of the sun compared to other stars is due to their relative distances from Earth. Assessment is limited to relative distances, not sizes, of stars. Assessment does not include other factors that affect apparent brightness (such as stellar masses, age, stage).
    NGSS5-PS2-1
    Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed down. “Down” is a local description of the direction that points toward the center of the spherical Earth. Assessment does not include mathematical representation of gravitational force.
