Students will be able to:
use the information from virtual activities, textbooks, hands-on activites, and classroom discussions to
-define eclipse.
-determine how eclipses occur.
Students took the remediation quiz for the seventh grade Earth/Space science benchmarks and MA 6 on the 8th grade benchmarks dealing with the Earth in time and space.
Students then took notes on eclipses. Remember to put the correct information in the table of contents:
Date 3/29 Benchmark SC.8.E.5.6 Topic Eclipses Page
Then, turn to that page and make a Cornell notes page. On the top, make sure there is a page number and a date. Include the topic. Next, draw something to remind you of solar and lunar eclipses. Use color.
On the next page, write the definition of an eclipse. Then, make a two column notes, with the following categories:
Columns: Solar and Lunar
Rows:
Row 2: Position of Celestial Bodies
Row 3: Total Eclipse Description
Row 4: Partial Eclipse Description
Don't forget to write your three leveled questions and summary on the Cornell notes page. Also, use three differently colored highlighters to correlate the questions in the margin of the Cornell notes page to the answers in the notes section.
After the notes, paste in HL 17 and 18. Also paste in the GIZMO on Eclipses. DO NOT paste it so you cannot see what was written! Place paste ONLY on the strip at the top before pasting in, so you can see BOTH sides of the GIZMO sheet. Be sure you completed the sheet prior to pasting it in your notebook.
