As part of the "lab", students place the balls on themselves. She had one board and a set of moons per lab table (or in her case 8 sets).

The moons are placed around the hole at what would be your typical "clock positions" - 12:00, 3:00, 6:00, 9:00, and the other 4 are spaced evenly between those main 4 positions. Hope this helps!Science Teaching Junkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464856440476441516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6064016938173829596.post-40100905616730490662016-01-31T12:27:41.331-06:002016-01-31T12:27:41.331-06:00What is the dimension of the hole in the middle?

Not only did I use it with introducing moon phases, I was able to break it out for eclipses and tides to help them get a better picture of how the moon interacts with Earth. I had my neighbor coming over and borrowing the boards to help her students understand better. Her students loved the boards too. I was a bit rushed when I made mine this year. I plan on making some over the summer that I can really spend some time perfecting placements and painting. Thanks so much for posting this idea!<br /><br />SherrieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12194986216725309705noreply@blogger.com
