01
Brain POP Science - Solar Eclipse
Need an engaging solar eclipse resource? BrainPOP has you covered! Let Tim and Moby explain the difference between partial and total eclipses; what an umbra is; why the path of totality is the place to be; and how to observe a solar eclipse safely. Don't let this movie pass you by—click "play" and prepare to be illuminated!

The Path of Totality
The projected exact time it will pass over each county and be found online through any specific search but in order to get the best view we recommend watching the sky from 12pm to 3pm.

MODEL A SOLAR ECLIPSE - NASA
Students use simple materials to model the basics of a partial, annular, and total solar eclipse
04
Solar Eclipse Endeaver - Arkansas
High Schools around the state will be recording luminosity and temperature during the solar eclipse! Teachers can provide a rare opportunity for their students by attending PD at their local cooperative where they will receive all equipment at no cost!
