Why does the Moon appear to have different shapes that repeat on a monthly cycle? What do the terms waxing and waning mean? In this activity, students will map the orbit of the Moon for a full month’s time! Learning the phases of the Moon has never been so easy! AP6739 | $11.25

Copernican Solar System Model
What causes our seasons on Earth? How does Earth’s revolution around the Sun influence the changing of the seasons? Demonstrate and explain the answers
to these questions and more using this low-cost, highly visual kit! Use the Earth model to allow students to observe the changing of the seasons in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres over a year’s time. Students also see the variation in day length in different areas of the world at various times of the year.
AP6150 | $14.05
How does the Earth’s rotation affect objects moving over its surface? Innovative activity model gives students hands-on experience investigating how objects move across
the surface of a rotating planet due to the Coriolis Effect. Students will study the effect of temperature and the Coriolis Effect on ocean currents and also compare the influ- ence of the Coriolis Effect on the atmosphere in the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Fascinating simulation! Kit includes enough materials and Coriolis Effect models for five student groups.

Students “see” and “feel” what our fascinating Solar System looks like with this hand-operated, heliocen- tric model. The bright yellow 6”-diameter Sun is the center of this Copernican model, which shows the motions of the planets, their relative sizes and colors and relative distances from one another. Ten steel arms on a sturdy base show the planetary orbits and the Asteroid Belt. Included is an illustrated, 46-page Worlds in Motion study guide, which combines astronomy facts with activities using the model for demonstration and explanation.
