We will be doing a lot of modeling this week where you will need COLORED PENCILS in order to create accurate models.  

Finish Reflection Questions (IN113)

Rephrase the questions in your answers.​

1. Describe at least two ways your final model has changed from the previous models.​
2. Jan 20, 2019 was the last lunar eclipse of the year. Based on your understanding of the moon and how it orbits Earth, review PhET Gravity and Orbits simulation (IN 88), why do you think lunar eclipses are so rare?
