The document provides an educational overview of Earth and the solar system, discussing topics like the characteristics of planets, their orbits, and the definition of celestial bodies such as moons and asteroids. It explains key concepts such as latitude, longitude, and time zones, as well as the Earth's rotation and its impact on day and night as well as the seasons. Additionally, it highlights various planets' features, including their sizes, positions, and unique attributes.

7. What do you
know about
our earth or
solar system?

8. Our earth
and the
solar
sysytem
Unit1: Lesson1

9. Why is our
earth called
blue
planet?

10. Earth • The third nearest planet to the Sun.
• The fifth in size among other
planets.
• Oxygen and water.
• Spherical and flattened at the poles.
• Atmosphere, the surrounded
blanked, has gasses like nitrogen
and carbon dioxide.
• It protects us from the harmful
ultraviolet radiations from the Sun.

11. TELL SOMETHING YOU
KNOW ABOUT SOLAR
SYSTEM

12. • The Sun is at the center of the solar
system.
• is the largest member of the solar
planets.
• All planets, satellites, astroids and
comets revolve around it.
• Its heat is necessary for all forms of
life on the Earth.
• All planets shine because they
reflect its sunlight.
OVERVIEW

13. WHAT ARE
PLANETS? • Largest celestial objects orbiting the
Sun.
• Do not have their own heat and light.
• Spherical in shape.
• There are eight planets orbiting the
Sun.
• Revolve over fixed paths called orbits
• Two types, rocky planets which are
closest to the Sun, and Gas planets
which are farthest from the Sun.

14. AS GROUPS, NAME THE FOLLOWING
PLANETS.

15. THE PLANET MERCURY
• The smallest and closest planet to the Sun.
• It has no moon.
• Blasted heat at the day and freezing cold at
night.

16. THE PLANET VENUS
• The brightest and the hottest planet of the
solar system.
• Its size is nearly equal to the Earth.
• It’s the Earth’s sister.

17. THE PLANET MARS
• Nickname is Red planet because it is
covered in red dust.
• Dry and cold

18. THE PLANET JUPITER
• Known as a Mini Solar System because it
has 66 moon revolving around.
• Planet number five after the Sun.
• The heaviest and the largest planet in solar
system.

19. THE PLANET SATURN
• Known for its beautiful rings that ate made
up of icy particles, dust and gas.
• has 62 moons.

20. THE PLANET URANUS
• Located at the edge of solar system.
• Number 7 after the Sun.
• Known as the Ice Giant because a large
part of is made up of ice.
• Chilly gas planet

21. THE PLANET NEPTUNE
• Furthest planet from the Sun.
• Likes Uranus, it’s the coldest in the solar
sysytem

22. SATELLITES
• Celestial or heavenly bodies that revolve
around the planets.
• They rotate on their own axis from west to
east.
• They do not have their own light.

23. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT
MOON?

24. The Moon
• The only natural satellite of our Earth.
• Dusty, airless, datted with craters and
lava.
• Apeears in different sizes, shapes and
positions at different times.
• brighter at night because it reflects
light from the Sun.

25. WOULD YOU

26. Asteroid Belt

floating in the space.
Meteors=Shooting star

atmosphere at high speed
Comets

through the solar system

33. What do we call
this?

34. LATITUDE
AND
LONGITUDE
The Globe

35. THE GLOBE:
It is a small model of the Earth
that represents continents,
oceans, countries etc.
IS THE EARTH
FLAT?

36. THE EARTH:
Because the Earth isnt flat
(Spherical), It is difficult to
locate places easily, so we
needed certain points,
references and lines.

37. • Axis: an imaginary upon which the
Earth rotates.
• The North Pole: the pole pointing to
the north star.
• The South Pole: the pole pointing to
the south star.
• The Equator: an imaginary line
divides the Earth into two
hemispheres (parts)
• Guess the three
reference points
needed to locate a
place?

38. Latitudes or Paralles
Meridians or Longitudes

39. Latitudes or Paralles
Meridians or Longitudes

40. Latitudes or Paralles
• The latitude of a place is: its
angular distance, north or south
of the Equator.
• Measured in degrees ( )
• Each degree equals 60 parts or
minutes ( )
• Each minute equals 60 seconds ( )
The Equator degree latitude is Zero,
so the values of every latitude is
followed by S or N

41. Latitudes or Paralles
• The Equator is the longest
complete latitude, so all of the
other latitudes are located at an
equal distance from each other.

42. Other latitudes
The Arctic Circle
The tropic of Caprion
The Equator
The Tropic of Cancer
The Antarctic Circle

43. Other latitudes
The Earth is divided into
3 heat zones:
Could guess the climate
zone according to its
color?

45. Set of imaginary lines
running from the North
Pole to the South Pole
Meridians or Longitudes

46. It divides the Earth into
Western and Eastern
Hemispheres
Meridians or Longitudes

47. Latitudes or Paralles
Meridians or Longitudes
We can find the location of
any place based on the
grid, the longitudes and
the latitudes.

48. Do we Witness the same
time zone?

49. Longitude & Time
• People needed a
standard system for
keeping time.
Time is fixed according to
its relative position to
Greenwich where the
Prime Meridian passes
through.

50. Longitude & Time

51. Longitude & Time
The difference in time between any
two places is due to the fact that they
are located at different longitudes or
meridians.

The Grid

56. It is an imaginary line on the Earth’s surface
defining the boundary between one day and the
next.
Torrid, Temperate and Frigid Zones.

60. WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT THE EARTH’S
MOTIONS?

62. The circle that divides the
day from night on this
rotation.
THE CIRCLE OF ILLUMINATION
Where does the Earth get
heat from?

63. ROTATION IS CALLED:
The daily motion of the Earth
which is also known as the Earth
Day

64. WHAT IS DAYTIME?
NIGHTIME?
The duration of the day and
night keeps on changing
throughout the year because of
the inclination of the Earth’s axis.

65. The four seasons happen due to:
• the Earth’s Poles tip towards the Sun for 3
months out of the year.
• The inclination of the Earth’s axis at a fixed
angle and direction.
• The revolution of the Earth around the Sun.

67. It’s when the Earth experiences equal days and equal nights due to the
direct funlight falling on the equator.
It’s when the Earth turns around the axis.
1-Duration and the changing of day and night.
It happens in one of two days a year when the Sun its at its highest or
lowest point i the sky at noon.
It’s the circle that divides the day from night on the globe.
It’s a year that has 366 days.
