Moon Phases Simulation Viewed from Earth and Space | PBS LearningMediaRelate observable Moon patterns to motions within the Earth–Sun–Moon system using this digital model from Astronomy Education at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Linked Earth and space perspectives enable students to recognize cause-and-effect relationships. They can also visualize the spatial and time scales of phenomena such as the Moon’s apparent path in the sky and the Moon’s appearance in the day sky and night sky.

The Sun, the Sky, and a Whole Lotta Pie: Ruff Ruffman's Sun and Shadows Game | PBS LearningMediaExplore the relationship between the Sun’s apparent path in the sky and changing shadows with this interactive game featuring PBS KIDS character Ruff Ruffman. Students help Ruff use shadow clues to solve a problem: getting to the bakery before his twin brother so he can get the only apple-bacon-kibble pie made. The game allows students to model and manipulate the location of the Sun to observe the effect on an object’s shadow.
