Through a series of simple body movements, learners gain insight into the relationship between time and astronomical motions of Earth (rotation about its axis, and orbit around the Sun), and also abou

A group of learners models the Sun shining on the Earth. By rotating the Earth, they demonstrate how the Sun only shines on a portion of the Earth at a time.

In this activity, learners will measure the length of their shadow from the Sun and compare it three to four months later.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners make 3-dimensional models of the Earth and Moon.
