Description
This is an HR Diagram Reading and Worksheets Packet. Students read about HR diagrams, luminosity (star brightness), star color, and star temperature. They examine main sequence, red giant, and white dwarf stars on the HR diagram. They use the reading to answer one page of reading questions and complete two pages of practice questions. This assignment is for middle school or high school (8th-11th) Earth science or Astronomy classes. This product contains 4 pages and a key.
- Reading on the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram (star temperature and brightness)
- 1 page of reading questions
- 2 pages of practice problems- on the first page student compare stars on the HR diagram. On the second page students make "pizzas" by locating toppings with coordinates from the HR diagram.
You can grade the assignment with the key or put copies of the key at the front of the room for students to check their own work when they have completed the packet. If you have students who struggle with reading, you can read the first page out loud and then let students work on their own. You can let students work in groups of two if you think they may need more support. This assignment was made with Virginia SOLs in mind but this topic is included in many state standards.
