Kids RADIATE with Brain Breaks

The sun teaches us that even though our lives have changed, it keeps rising and setting each day. May you find your power with with this 5 minute brain break and use it with your students. Sending you all much love and appreciation,
Mrs. Frizzi

The Sun is located in the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma, essentially, a hot ball of glowing gases.
It is the most important source of energy for life on Earth.
The Sun has a diameter of around 1.39 million kilometers / 864,000 miles. This is 109 times greater than the diameter of our planet.
The Sun’s mass consists of 73% hydrogen, 25% helium, and smaller amounts of oxygen, carbon, neon, iron, and other elements.
The Sun is so massive that it accounts for 99.86% of the total mass of the entire Solar System..
This energy is the source of the Sun’s light and heat. It can take between 10,000 and 170,000 years for this energy to escape from the Sun’s core.
Every star is classified based upon their physical characteristics. Our Sun is labeled as a G-type main-sequence star or G2V.
The Sun is approximately 4.6 billion years old.
Many cultures from around the world associated the Sun with their most important deity or a very prominent one, and for good reason! Without the Sun, we wouldn’t exist.
The connection and interactions between the Sun and Earth drive the seasons, ocean currents, weather, climate, radiation belts, and aurorae.
Though there are billions of stars in the galaxy, our Sun will always be the most special star.
The Sun spins once every 25 days, but at its poles, it rotates once every 35 days.
The Sun’s core is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit / 15 million degrees Celsius.
