Yavneh third graders were so excited to experience the total solar eclipse! They discussed the significance of this phenomenon and then recreated the process using a small flashlight for the sun, an Earth squishy ball, and a Ping Pong ball as the moon. Oohs and ahhs could be heard throughout the classroom as 23 solar eclipses were rotating simultaneously! Students wrote out the process of how a shadow is cast over the Earth in preparation to model it for their family this evening. They were over the moon about the excitement and this hands-on learning.
