The Sun! PowerPoint Presentation

This 38 slide PowerPoint presentation covers 9 questions on the topics of the sun.

Main points include: the sun as the source of all light in the solar system, what powers the sun, what forces hold the sun together, the interior layers of the sun (core, radiation zone, convective zone), the layers of the suns atmosphere (photosphere, chromosphere, corona), solar wind, features on the sun's surface (sunspots, prominences, solar flares), the age of the sun, and what will happen to the sun in the future.

Simple and easy to use. Can be used with Cornell notes. Great for middle school or introductory high school courses. As always, I try to include as many images as possible for relevant examples.

If you like these notes, you can follow these links to other lessons and activities in my astronomy unit.

Coming soon...
