Science 7

The document is a science worksheet about sunrise and sunset times. It contains a table showing sunrise and sunset times in Manila, Philippines on selected days from January to December 2011. It asks students to analyze the data to notice patterns in sunrise and sunset times throughout the year and relate these patterns to seasonal changes in day length and temperature. Specifically, it asks them to note that (1) sunrise times get later and sunset times get earlier from January to December, (2) day length is longest in June and shortest in December, and (3) it is likely hotter in April than December due to longer daylight hours.
