Let’s go step by step to solve this worksheet.
---
First, look at the two diagrams with Earth, Moon, and Sun in different orders.
Top diagram:
Order from left to right:
Earth → Moon → Sun
This means the
Moon is between Earth and Sun.
When the Moon blocks the Sun from Earth’s view, that’s a
Solar Eclipse.
✔ So for the top one, choose:
Solar Eclipse
---
Bottom diagram:
Order from left to right:
Moon → Earth → Sun
This means the
Earth is between Moon and Sun.
The Earth casts its shadow on the Moon — that’s a
Lunar Eclipse.
✔ So for the bottom one, choose:
Lunar Eclipse
---
Now, the last part: “Write the name of the Eclipse” next to two pictures.
First picture (top):
It shows a black circle surrounded by a glowing ring — that’s the Sun being blocked by the Moon. You can see the corona (glow) around it.
That’s what happens during a
Solar Eclipse.
✔ Write:
Solar Eclipse
---
Second picture (bottom):
It shows a red/orange full moon — that’s called a “Blood Moon,” which happens during a
Lunar Eclipse when Earth’s shadow falls on the Moon.
✔ Write:
Lunar Eclipse
---
Final Answer:
Top multiple choice: Solar Eclipse
Bottom multiple choice: Lunar Eclipse
First image blank: Solar Eclipse
Second image blank: Lunar Eclipse
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of solar and lunar eclipses worksheet.
