--Lesson Plan--

Alright, here's everything you need to know about our project:

Standards
D. Analyze the essential ideas about the structure and composition of the universe.
> Analyze the Big Bang Theory's use of gravitation and nuclear reaction to explain a possible origin of the universe.
> Compare the use of visual, radio, and x-ray telescopes to collect data regarding the structure and evolution of the universe.

Objectives
> The objectives of this lesson is to teach what black holes are, how it's theoried that they were formed, and how to use the Schwarzschild Radius to find out how much an object must collapse to become a black hole. We want the students to understand how scientists find black holes and how much of our knowledge is based on theories.

Timeline
Period 1: Hand out outline, give lecture. Start lab.
Period 2: Finish lab. Give open-notes quiz.

Assessment
A 10 question quiz will be given and the notes that the students take will be allowed on the desktops for reference. A lab will be performed to cement the knowledge of black holes, and will be added with their quiz grade. The two grades will be averaged and submitted. We also created 5 multiple choice questions for the Physics final.

Until Next Time,
