STEP 1
- Chat with Our AI Buddy: Partner up and fire up the AI chatbot. Ask it all about the Moon’s spin and orbit. Find out how long each one takes and which way they go.
- Let’s Get Artsy with Canva: Time to flex those creative muscles! Use Canva to make some sweet diagrams showing how the Moon moves. Label the directions and time it takes for each move.
Think before you click: What do you reckon we see from Earth because of these moves? Take a guess before you dive into your research!
Put your own spin on it: Use what you’ve learned to make your diagrams unique. It’s all about making sense of what we know in a cool way!
STEP 2
- Get Creative with Models: Time to roll up your sleeves and get crafty! Use Copilot Image Creator or a similar tool to design a model showing how the Moon spins and circles around Earth. You can go digital or plan out a cool physical model.
Think STEM: Let’s chat about the science stuff while we dive into cool tech tools like AI image creators.
Put on your thinking caps: Take a closer look at how the Moon’s moves change how it looks from here on Earth.
- Share the Love with Peer Reviews: It’s show-and-tell time! Share your digital or planned models with another pair and get some feedback. See how accurate and creative you can get!
Let’s build together: Use what you learn from your buddies to make your model even better. It’s all about learning from each other and making cool stuff!
STEP 3
ASSESMENT
