Lunar Eclipse

Lunar Eclipse A Lunar Eclipse occurs when the moon passes through the Earth’s shadow. Depending on where the moon crosses Earth’s shadow, the top or bottom will appear darker. The reddish color is from sunlight refracted by Earth’s atmosphere onto the moon. Instructional Approach(s): The teacher should present the characteristics of a lunar eclipse on the slide while the students describe a lunar eclipse on their notes.

Lunar Eclipse Instructional Approach(s): The teacher should use the diagrams to illustrate the position of the Earth, Sun, and Moon during a lunar eclipse. Be sure to discuss how and why only parts of the Earth experience the total and partial lunar eclipse.

Video Clips and Animations of a Lunar Eclipse Watch the clips on the website under Lunar Eclipse Instructional Approach(s): The teacher should show the animations of a lunar eclipse to reinforce the concept.

In the space provided on your notes, draw a simple diagram showing the position of the Sun, Moon, and Earth during a solar eclipse. Instructional Approach(s): Give the students a few minutes (no more than 2 minutes) to draw a simple diagram showing the position of the Sun, Moon, and Earth during a lunar eclipse. The students may start out with just the positions shown. After a few minutes, click to show the simple diagram on the slide. You may want students to go back and illustrate the shadow part too.

Distributed Summarizing With an elbow partner, describe the difference between a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse. Instructional Approach(s): The students should answer the distributed summarizing question with a partner. Partners can be determined by the students or the teacher can provide more specific directions such as turn to the person directly in front/behind you or to the right/left of you, etc. It may be necessary to have a group of three if you have an uneven number of students. Do not allow more than 1 minute of discussion time. The teacher should be walking around listening and redirecting discussions as needed. Once students have been given 2 minutes or less to discuss solar and lunar eclipses, click to the next slide.

Lunar Eclipses happen when the Moon passes through Earth’s shadow, whereas solar eclipses happen when Earth passes through the Moon’s shadow. Instructional Approach(s): The teacher should use the slide to review the differences between a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse.

Activities for Eclipses [see resources for details] Little Moon Giant Sun Demonstration Creating Eclipses Blackout Sun, Earth, and Moon Images Instructional Approach(s): The teacher should select 1-2 of the activities to demonstrate or reinforce eclipses.

Summarizing Strategy [see resources] Instructional Approach(s): Each student should complete the summarizing strategy. The teacher should review each summarizer to determine the level of student mastery to determine if differentiation is needed.
