Phases of the Moon Activites

Added: 06 Sep 2016 Contributor: Aoife McDonnell Resource type: Guide/notes / Simulation

Initially the resource looks like an article, however there are three interactive animations embedded into the website for use in the classroom. Activities on selecting the shadows on the moon at each phase, identify how each phase will look from Earth and an animation identifying the names of each phase of the moon.
