The kids and I will not be getting much sleep tonight. One of the benefits of homeschooling, I suppose.http://m.click2houston.com/blood-moon-overnight/25463878 4951

@topcat: I'm still trying to understand the timeline. I think at 2:46, it will already be in full eclipse. The kids want to see the progression, which starts around 1:00.  3 hours is a long time though. 4951

@MAHM Yeah, it said that was the peak.  I bet if you start 20 minutes ahead of time, you'll see the final progression. Then, the next day to supplement their experience, find a good you tube video that time lapses the progression.  Sometimes the NOAA or NASA website will have things like that.  Then, as an English lesson: Find lunar key words and find/ write definitions. The 9 year old can use them in a sentence or fill in blanks in a worksheet about the moon.  I have to find all my awesome websites for learning materials for you.   History: Discuss moon landing.  Art: Build a rocket  Math: Distance to the moon and how long it would take to drive there if you could as compared to distance to Wal Mart and how long that takes. Field trip: Johnson Space Center  I always like to work off a central theme because it enhances interest and learning.  I don't know a thing about home schooling, but I do know about learning!   You can make a lesson out of ANYTHING!   4951

@MAHM: No prob! I'll start compiling a list of my favorite websites for learning. I have to go back and find them all again cause they are all on my old work computer Emoticon  I will help you whenever you want! This is fun for me.

@fcabanski: Weather Underground says it will be clear all night and morning. I hope that's accurate!You're right, it's not just an eclipse. It's a Blood Moon. My kids are excited.
