This science object provides an understanding of the moon’s orbit around Earth and the phases of the moon as experienced from Earth’s surface.
Science Object: Motion of the Moon

“This was a fantastic review of material for me and great to use some of the animations and photos with classes. I especially liked the animation in which you could click on a day and see which phase the moon would look like from Earth perspective. I liked the little "quizzes" and checks embedded within the program rather than having a quiz at the very end of the material. I felt comfortable with the level of learning--I did not feel spoken down to or not able to understand the reading. Excellent resource.” Bort, N.

This science object provides a conceptual and real-world understanding of the different types of energy. All forms of energy can be broadly classified as one or a combination of two kinds: kinetic energy and potential energy. Other kinds of energy include gravitational, thermal, and chemical.
