Graphing Daylight
In this engaging lesson, students will use an online seasons simulation to explore how direct and indirect sunlight influence the seasons. They will graph daylight hours from cities located in different parts of the world using Google Sheets. Students will then analyze this data and look for patterns based on the location of the city on the globe.
