1. What is the moon phase after the first quarter moon?
A. full moon B. last quarter C. waxing gibbous D.
waning gibbous
2. What is the moon phase after the full moon?
A. full moon B. last quarter C. waning gibbous D.
waxing gibbous
3. How many degrees is the Earth tilted?
A. 24° B. 23.5° C. 24.5° D. 25°
Warm Up #2
1. What are the next three moon phases after Waxing
Crescent moon? First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full
Moon
2. Draw a Last Quarter or 3rd. Quarter Moon.
3. What is the difference between Waning and
Waxing? Waning shows the light on the left and waxing
shows the light on the right.
Warm Up #3
1. The asteroid belt is located between?
Mars and Jupiter
2. What causes most meteors to burn up before landing
on Earth?
A. the friction between the meteor and atmosphere B.
the meteor is traveling very slowly
C. the meteor is really, really small D. the heat from the
sun melts it
3. Why does the moon go through different phases?
A. the moon is in Earth's shadow B. the moon reflects
sunlight at different angles
C. the earth reflects sunlight to the moon D. the moon
rotates on its axis
Warm Up #4 (see handout)
1. What two countries were involved with the Space
Race? USSR, United States
2. What was the name of the Soviet Union's first
satellite? Sputnik
3. How is the space shuttle different from the rockets
used with John Glenn and the Apollo Mission?
Apollo was not re-useable and landed in the water. The
space shuttle launched like a rocket, maneuvers like a
spaceship, and lands like a jet.
Warm Up #5
1. A major first step in the exploration of space was
A. the Apollo Program B. the Sputnik Satellite
C. the Hubble Telescope D. The International Space
Station
2. Draw a picture of the sun, moon, and Earth to show
Neap Tides.
3. Draw a picture of the sun, moon, and
Earth to show Spring Tides.
Spring Tide
Warm Up #6 (Use Energy handout)
1. What is Energy? Energy is the ability to
do work.
2. What are the two categories for energy?
Kinetic and Potential Energy
3. What is the difference between kinetic and potential
energy? Kinetic energy = energy in motion and
Potential energy = stored energy
Warm Up #7
1. What is the difference between a renewable and
nonrenewable resource? Nonrenewable means their
supplies are limited and take a long time to replace.
Renewable energy sources are replenished in a short
time.
2. What does the law of conservation of energy state?
Energy can never be lost. It can only change from one
form to another.
3. Name all the energy forms under potential energy and
under kinetic energy.
Potential= Chemical, Nuclear, Stored Mechanical,
Gravitational
Kinetic= Radiant, Thermal, Motion, Sound, Electrical
Warm Up #8
1. Can energy be transferred from one object to
another? Why? (See handout or page 321)
Yes, energy can be transferred because of the law of
energy states: Energy is neither created nor destroyed.
2. Name the five examples of energy transfer? page 321
or handout
Turning on a lamp = Electrical to mechanical, to light to
thermal
Turning on a gas stove = Chemical to Heat
Starting a car = Chemical to Electrical to Mechanical
Lighting fireworks = Heat to Chemical to Light to Sound
Turning on a fan = Electrical to Mechanical
3. Fossil fuels is a nonrenewable resource. Name three
types of fossil fuels. Coal, Natural Gas, Oil
Warm Up #9
1. A student who jumps up and down in a room for 60
seconds is demonstrating what change in energy?
Chemical → Motion → Thermal
2. Under normal circumstances, energy in a system
cannot be increased or decreased, it can only be
A. magnified B. ended C. grown D. transformed
(changed)
3. After the Sun's energy has been absorbed by the land,
atmosphere, and oceans on Earth, what happens to the
energy? A. it disappears completely B. it changes to
heat energy and stays completely on Earth C. the
energy for the Sun changes to heat energy, some of
which goes to space
D. it changes to kinetic energy and keeps the Earth in its
orbit
Warm Up #10
1. The energy transformations (change of form) of
a gasoline car are
A. chemical-->thermal-->mechanical
B. nuclear--> thermal-->mechanical
C. sunlight-->potential-->mechanical
D. potential-->mechanical-->magnetic
2. What sequence of items below best
demonstrates the energy transformation from the
Sun to a plant? (Show at least 3 changes)
Solar  Chemical  Motion
3. A rock sitting on top of a cliff has
potential energy?
