TPACK in my science project

Content:
This particular assignment is meant for third graders and it teaches their science standard 1 by having them understand the motions of the earth, the sun, and the moon. As the children become engaged in what they are learning they will want to understand why and how the earth rotates every 24 hours and that is why we have sunlight. Students should know why the sun, planets, and stars seem to be moving when you look at them.
Pedagogy:
The students will be observing and identifying how the earth rotates in accordance with the sun and moon on their own. I am using a hands-on observing method of pedagogy where students get to try to make sense the Stellarium program. I would have questions ready for them to answer as they explore the rotation of earth about where certain buttons are located and how you can do different things. This works well with the content because it allows students to explore freely with out feeling intimidated.
Technology: I chose Stellarium for my technology. This technology focuses on rotation and constellations. It gives a wide perspective of what is out in our solar system. I remember being very confused about the Earth's rotation because my teacher did not use a combination of content, pedagogy, and technology to push understanding. You either got it or you didn't. Now kids can feel like they are looking up to the sky and figuring out for themselves why things are the way they are. This technology is perfect because it shows the earth revolving and rotating so clearly that children can't miss it!
