Monday, February 26, 2017 Eclipses and Tides 4 Corner Illustrations: In the Blue Textbooks, use pages 294 -296 to help you label and order the Earth-Moon-Sun in the illustrations for eclipses. Use pages 331 -332 to label and order the Earth-Moon-Sun for the tides illustrations. In the FOSS Planetary Books, use pages 27 -29 How does the phases of the Moon relate to tides and eclipses. Write this in the 4 Corners illustrations. What is the driving force behind the tides? Label high and low tides. If you do not finish this in class, you will need to use Discovery Education to complete this for homework.
