You'll get a worksheet to go with this simulator in class. Make sure to pay attention to the way Earth is tilted toward or away from the sun. Make sure you know this vocab too:
- Rotation - Earth spinning on it's axis (24 hours)
- Revolution - Earth moving on it's path all the way around the sun
- Orbit - The path Earth takes around the Sun
- Year - One complete revolution (trip) around the sun. This takes 365.25 days.
