The Sun is a Fiery Ball of GasTo help the students develop understanding of the concept that the sun is a ball of fiery gases, not solid like the earth, use streamers or strips of paper in red, yellow, white and orange. Give each child one streamer. The children are positioned in concentric circles of colors. The center is white (hottest part of sun), then yellow, then orange and last red. put on spacey type music and have children "boil and bubble" around in their circles. The circles can spin in different directions. Periodically say "solar flare" at which time the red streamers burst off the circle and then return to their place. (Solar flares are giant bursts of gas exploding off the surface of the sun.) To end, have children slowly "run out of gas" and sit on the floor as you turn down music.
You need: A Sunny Day, Construction Paper (Darker Colors will Work the Best)
Objects from Nature or Objects from Around the House (Flatter items Work Best)
Instructions:
Lay construction paper outside in the sun. Arrange items on the paper so their silhouettes will look nice. Wait about an hour and remove the items. You will see the paper has faded around the objects.
