Discussion Prompts

Observing

• What causes the day and night pattern on Earth?
• How does the Earth move to cause the day and night pattern? How does the Sun move?
• How long is one day? What makes up one day?

Predicting

• Why do you think different parts of the world experience day and night at different times?
• How do you think the day and night pattern works on other planets in our solar system?
• Which direction do you think the Earth would be facing when you on the way to school in the morning? What about when you are eating dinner?
• How do animals and plants adapt to the day and night pattern? Can you think of any examples of creatures that are active only at night or only during the day?

Collaborating

• How did you work with your group to build the Day/Night with Switch build?
• Was there a tip or trick that your group used that helped you be successful?
• What is one way that your group worked together to solve a problem? What did you do to help you come to an agreement or compromise?
