Students have been using thermometers to take temperature readings in sunlight and in the shade. They found that the temperature goes up in the sun and down in the shade. The article we read in class today, Differential Heating, explains that the Sun does not heat the Earth evenly. We explored different climate regions relating our science lessons to social studies discussing how people's lives are affected by their climate.
Check out our mind maps we made to discuss why the Sun doesn't heat the Earth evenly and cold climate countries.
