Plotting Your Own Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram
In this lesson students will be able to create an identified x and y-axes and be able to plot how stars fit onto the diagram. Stars have properties (listed on the activity) and will fit into the chart that students will create. Students will use their knowledge of luminosity, temperature and mass to place the stars on their Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) Diagram poster.
