The Solar Eclipse Implementation Sequence provides a series of lesson plans for students to learn about solar eclipses.
In this activity, students will analyze past and future eclipse data and orbital models to determine why we don’t experience eclipses every month.
Students will examine air temperature data collected through The GLOBE Program during the 2017 US solar eclipse.
In this activity, students will model the geometry of solar eclipses by plotting a few points on a piece of graph paper, and using quarters and a nickel to represent the Sun and Moon (not to scale).
