Summary:
Today’s lesson came in two parts. For the first 15 minutes of class, I gave a lecture about moons. We shut off the lights, turned on our fake sun, and discussed the moon, moon phases, eclipses, and even Apollo 11 (see video above). Then students got to work on Page 514. They were asked to explain what they had absorbed about the aforementioned topics and they even did some speed and gravity calculations. Meanwhile, Mr. A walked around the room sprinkling in some mediocre moon jokes. All in all, it was a great class.
