Make an Eclipse Flip Book

This free document prepared by Dr. Daniel Barth introduces an Eclipse Flip Book activity, emphasizing the importance of safety when observing an eclipse.

It urges avoiding direct sunlight exposure and encourages projecting the solar image onto an index card every 10 minutes during the eclipse. The outlined steps guide in creating a flip book by tracing and shading the dark portion where the Moon covers the Sun, resulting in an animated representation of the eclipse.

Pre-drawn circles on the cards and adjusting the distance from the binoculars for a proper fit enhance the effectiveness of the flip book.
