A simple plenary activity where students have to work out (and explain why) which bulb will shine the brightest when the switches are closed. |
An interactive demonstration of how the position of the moon throughout the lunar month gives rise to the moon's phases. Move the slider to make the moon travel along it's orbit around the Earth. |
Shows how the seasons arise because of the tilt of the axis of the Earth. The slider makes the Earth move along it's orbit around the Sun. Also shown is the path of the Sun (as seen from the Northern Hemisphere). |
