What is ... the Sun?

Today's comprehension is about the Sun and some interesting facts about it.

That the sun is a star made up of fiery gas and is 150 million kilometres away from the Earth (about 8 light minutes ...)


The Earth takes 365 days, or one year, to go around the sun. Once every four years it takes one day more (leap year). This will take place next in 2012 now.

HW - Handout pgs 30-31 "Do you remember? section" nos 1-5 (choose the right answer); "More to think about section" no 1 (a-g : short answers) and no 2 (a-d : full answers)
