An eclipse is the casting of a _______ of one
celestial body on the surface of another.  The
Earth’s shadow creates a _____ eclipse; the
Moon’s shadow creates a _____ eclipse.
 
 
shadow
 
lunar
 
solar
A solar eclipse happens when the _____ blocks
our view of the sun. This happens when the
Moon is exactly between the Sun and the Earth
during the _________ phase.
 
Moon
 
new moon
The shadows cast during an eclipse have two
parts:  The penumbra and the umbra.  The
________ is the faint _____ shadow.  A
_______ eclipse is visible from within this
shadow.
 
penumbra
 
outer
 
partial
The second part of the shadow is the
______.  The umbra is the dark _____
shadow.  A _____ eclipse is visible from
within the umbral shadow.

How to draw a solar eclipse:
 
1)  On a piece of paper, draw a Sun on the
far left, an Earth on the far right, and a
moon close to the Earth.  All bodies need to
be drawn in a straight line.
 
How to draw a solar eclipse:
 
2)  Find a point at the top of the Sun and the
top of the Moon.  Using a ruler, draw a line
to connect the points and continue line to the
Earth.

3)  Now from the same point on the Sun, find
the point at the center of the bottom of the
moon and draw a line.

would experience a total eclipse.

6)  Shade in the penumbra, this one is

awe inspiring events in all of nature.  The sky
becomes _____ and the temperature may _____

A dark disk replaces the Sun, but surrounding
the Moon is a beautiful halo of light.  This is the
Sun’s ______.

This illustration shows an ________
shadow produced during this type of

through the shadow of the ______.  This

Moon
 
Earth
 
full
During the total eclipse, the Moon is still _____.
The Moon will actually become a variety of
colors from deep black to rich shades of red.
The red coloring comes from light from the sun
that is _______ as it passes through the Earth’s
                             __________ and is bent
                             toward the moon. That
                            light reflects off the
                              surface of the Moon and
                              into our eyes on Earth.

Solar and lunar eclipses are celestial phenomena where shadows are cast by one celestial body upon another. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon blocks the view of the Sun during the new moon phase, while a lunar eclipse happens when the Earth's shadow falls on the Moon. This article explains the different types of eclipses and how to draw a solar eclipse step by step.
