Layers of the Sun Pack

The Layers of the Sun Pack will make your teaching the layers of the sun easy with 2 editable PowerPoints, 3 pages of Guided Notes, 2 Describe & Define Graphic Organizer, Parts of the Sun Fill-in-the-Blank Worksheet, 2 Parts of the Sun Models, and the Parts of the Sun Table. You have everything you need in this pack to teach the parts of the sun. All of the printables are in PDF format. All of the files are in a zip file.

The Parts of the Sun PowerPoint is an 18-slide presentation that provides general information about the sun. Nuclear fusion is defined and explained in this introduction. The layers and special features of the sun are defined and explained slide by slide giving your students ample information to complete their guided notes, graphic organizers, or table. * I am a Christian scientist and point out to my students scripture that refers to the creation of the Sun. If you are teaching a secular class, you can choose to edit the presentation and delete this slide.

The Parts of the Sun Guided Notes follow the PowerPoint perfectly leaving blank spaces for the students to fill-in-the-blanks. This helps to keep students on task and attentive. These notes are perfect for teachers who require a science notebook as they make great study guides for the students.

Our Parts of the Sun Fill in the Blank Worksheet is simple. I understand though that the colored image may make it difficult to use for all your students. An idea is to print one out for groups and then use it as a ticket out the door. I like to use the Parts of the Sun Fill in the Blank PowerPoint to quiz students about the layers and parts of the sun diagram. This PowerPoint will reveal one answer at a time (by clicking) so that you can quiz students for the answers before showing them the answer. This makes for a quick review.

The Parts of the Sun Table is effective for students working towards a project or paper. I have used this table before requiring students to create a visual and paper describing the parts of the Sun. It becomes a great organizer of information. One year, we printed the table on one side and one of the diagrams on the other. Very practical study tool.

The Parts of the Sun Models sheets are just one more resource to have in your teacher's tool box when tackling the sun. One is like a poster, while the other requires students to fill in the blank using the word bank at the bottom.
