Resource:Solar Science Lesson Plan Outline
Provider:kidseclipse.com
Summary:Explore the solar system this winter using this fun, hands on, solar science lesson that delves into the moon, sun, earth, comets and asteroids.
Description:Look up to the sky; there is a lunar eclipse to be seen on February 21, 2008. This is a good time to find out what an eclipse really is. Kidseclispe.com has an award winning lesson plan shared for free on their site.

You be the judge of how you want to set up your lesson because with over 10 activities, this lesson plan outline is sure to keep your K-6th graders busy. Each section starts with a leading question, has vocabulary words highlighted with a link to the glossary and is written in easy to understand wording. The sections also include a summary for the teacher and once inside the link there are pictures, illustrations and animations detailing what is being said. Some of the sections have hands-on activities that will help strengthen your child’s understanding of how the Earth, Sun and Moon move.

This lesson details how a solar eclipse takes place, gives information on the Moon and Sun as well as comets and asteroids. This really can be an entire lesson in itself or just a starting place for an awesome unit on Astronomy.
