Today we have been learning all about solar eclipses as part of our Space topic. We have been doing this today as tomorrow there is due to be a solar eclipse where 95% of the sun will be blocked out by the moon!
here is what we know about eclipses…
Max – when an eclipse happens the light in the area covered by the eclipse will be blocked out but it will return when the moon comes out of alignment with the sun and the earth.
Hannah and Abbi – an eclipse is an accident of nature but it is natural and unusual.
Cole – it will take years for another big eclipse like this to happen in our country.
Brooke and Taylor – the moon is in between the sun and the earth during a solar eclipse
Aimee- It happens when the moon comes in between the earth and the sun.
