Astronomy - Sun, Moon, Tides

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Colorful in appearance, but without any photos or graphics, this PowerPoint is best used as a note-taking guide for your lecture. Viewers in your earth science class will discover characteristics and phases of the moon, its role in spring tides and neap tides, the difference between solar and lunar eclipses, and characteristics of the sun. If you do not teach all of these topics on the same day, this resource can be used as a review in preparation for a quiz.
