This week, we will continue our 4th unit on “Systems in Space” (Topics 6 & 7 in our textbook).  We will dive deeper into how a star’s characteristics (brightness, temperature, size, age and distance from Earth) affect the brightness of stars in our sky.  We will spend some time focusing on our sun and how it compares to other stars in the Milky Way galaxy. No major tests/projects are planned.  As always, you can keep up with our day to day assignments and any changes to this schedule at https://stpaul5thscience.blogspot.com/
