Science:
Lesson 1 - The Stars
SC.3.E.5.1 -Explain that stars can be different; some are smaller, some are larger, and some appear brighter than others; all except the Sun are so far away that they look like points of light.
SC.3.E.5.5 - Investigate that the number of stars that can be seen through telescopes is dramatically greater than those seen by the unaided eye.
SC.3.N.1.1 - Students will raise questions about the natural world, investigate them individually and in teams through free exploration and systematic investigations, and generate appropriate explanations based on those explorations.
SC.3.N.1.6 - Students will infer based on observation.
SC.3.N.3.1 - Students will recognize that words in science can have different or more specific meanings than their use in everyday language.
SC.3.N.3.2 - Recognize that scientists use models to help understand and explain how things work.
Lesson 2 - The Sun
SC.3.E.5.2 - Identify the Sun as a star that emits energy; some in the form of light.
SC.3.E.5.3 - Recognize that the sun appears large and bright because it is the closest star to Earth.
SC.3.E.6.1 - Demonstrate that radiant energy from the Sun can heat objects and when the Sun is not present, heat may be lost.
SC.3.N1.3 - Students will keep records as appropriate such as pictorial, written, or simple charts and graphs, of investigations conducted.
SC.3.N.1.6 - Students will infer based on observation.
