These card games serve as a repository of knowledge relating to shadows and lunar and solar eclipses. Key lessons covered include:
  • Understanding the relationship between the position of light sources in relation to their shadow's size;
  • Identifying how a lunar eclipse occurs when Earth obstructs solar light from reaching the moon;

Suitable for students ranging from Grade 5 to 9 with science or physics as their core study area. This resource offers two exciting game modes – wildcard and snap. It makes them practice crucial scientific terms so seamlessly they barely realize they are learning!
