Moon Notes

We are done with the TechSteps project.  I think it went well and everyone enjoyed working with the satellites.  Today we are going to resume our study of Earth's satellite, the moon.  The notes we completed last week will be supplemented with My Moon Notes.  The students will also be able to see first hand how the phases of the moon are created with shadows.  Their head will be the Earth and they will be able to see first hand how the shadow of the Moon model changes as it revolves around their head.
The start up for today is "why does the moon change phase?"
