What season is Europe experiencing in the model above? Explain how you know.

Exit Ticket Review:
Why does a lunar eclipse occur rather than a full moon?


Student 1:
"in order for a lunar eclipse to occur the sun, moon, and earth all have to be perfectly lined up. the earth has to be behind the earth and the sun has to be in front. this is different from a full moon because the orbit of the moon is tilted, which allows light to reach the moon as it is above or below earth."

Student 2:
"The earth, moon, and sun are like directly in front of each other A new moon happens when the moon is lower than the earth"
