Solar Eclipse



Happy spring, dear friends! The beauty and energy of springtime can finally be found in Saskatchewan. The snow is quickly melting, the sun is shining, and we are now able to take walks in the fresh breeze without cumbersome toques and mittens. 

Does the freshness and vitality of spring invigorate you as well? Here at Eclectech Educator, we are busy planning for April events, including the solar eclipse, Earth Day, Eid-ul-Fitr, and Poetry Month.



Mark your calendars and prepare to witness a celestial event of awe-inspiring beauty – the April 8th Solar Eclipse! On this magical day, the moon will pass between the Earth and the sun, casting its shadow upon our planet and momentarily dimming the sun's brilliant rays. 

To help your students understand this celestial event, check out my NEW resource! The Solar Eclipse 2004 resource includes an informational slide presentation, a student reader, comprehension questions, a flip book, and a craft. 

WHAT IS INCLUDED?
 ⭐ Information Slide Set - The slides describe how a solar eclipse occurs, the types of eclipses, photos, and safety during an eclipse. 
 ⭐ Student Reader - A three-page reader for students to read about solar eclipses. 
 ⭐ Comprehension Questions - Worksheets for students to complete after reading. 
 ⭐ Activity - Students answer the prompts in this five-page flip book to show their learnings about solar eclipses. 
 ⭐ Craft - A craft for students to make and then model what happens during a solar eclipse.




Spring is a time of growth, renewal, and endless inspiration - and the Eclectech Educator store is embracing it! Each resource in my Reading Skills and Strategies series is undergoing a major refresh. Each features five center activities, a student print recording booklet, and an answer key. Take a look at some of the updated resources!
