Bill Nye
Bill Nye: Baseball Moon
Try this at-home science experiment to make your own Moon model and see how the Moon's phases change.
Sophia Learning
Sophia: Bill Nye: Baseball Moon
Bill Nye explains the phases of the moon with an experiment using a baseball, a lamp on a table, a dark room, and a stool or chair that swivels. As the person moves around, the changes in reflected light show the phases of the moon. The...

Teach Engineering: Lunar Learning
Why does the Moon not always look the same to us? Sometimes it is a big, bright, circle, but, other times, it is only a tiny sliver, if we can see it at all. The different shapes and sizes of the slivers of the Moon are referred to as...

Science Buddies: What's the Point of Boiling?
You know that water can exist in three separate phases: solid (ice), liquid (water), and vapor (steam). To change from one phase to another, you simply add (or remove) heat. When water boils, what happens to molecules (for example sugar...

Teach Engineering: How Cold Can You Go?
Students explore materials engineering by modifying the material properties of water. Specifically, they use salt to lower the freezing point of water and test it by making ice cream. Using either a simple thermometer or a mechatronic...

Utah Science: What's Up There Anyway?
Far out there we observe the moon, its phases, and its constant changing position as we sit on a swing in the backyard. Investigate the science behind the moon through the activities provided.
Library of Congress
Loc: See, Hear, and Sing Animation
The Library of Congress takes a look at the wacky world of cartoons, beginning with George Melies, who demonstrated that objects could be animated in film with a series of drawings, each drawn with slight changes.

Cornell University: The Phases of the Moon
This site from Cornell University provides great information on the different phases of the moon. As the Moon moves in its orbit around the Sun, our view of the side illuminated by the Sun changes. Furthermore, the rising and setting...

Teach Engineering: All Fat Is Not Created Equally!
Students learn that fats found in the foods we eat are not all the same; they discover that physical properties of materials are related to their chemical structures. Provided with several samples of commonly used fats with different...

Teach Engineering: Insulation Materials Investigation
Students test the insulation properties of different materials by timing how long it takes ice cubes to melt in the presence of various insulating materials. Students learn about the role that thermal insulation materials can play in...
