Take a trip to the MOON with us in this in-depth family unit study. Learn about theories on how the moon was created, the moon’s geography, phases, eclipses, and even the moon landing! Then extend your learning into the arts with our related poetry, music, and artist studies. This listing includes both the Northern and Southern hemisphere moon phase posters and learning cards.
IMPORTANT: This unit study includes, but expands upon, the moon phases lessons included in our Night Sky Curious Trails Nature Study. I do not recommend purchasing both listings.
Description
Inspired by Charlotte Mason, you’ll find us chasing our curiosities through our read-aloud, nature adventures, and big conversations. This Looking Glass Nature Study includes six open-and-go lesson areas to engage literature, science, outdoor studies, and the arts, filled with hands-on exploration.
YOU WILL RECEIVE:
I. NATURE TALES
There’s nothing more powerful than storytelling to connect us and make sense of our world. Introduce our topic with our read-aloud, Margaret and the Moon, and related discussion.
II. DISCOVER
Enrich your understanding as we begin to explore moon geography and phases with our illustrated lesson guides, vintage posters, and a variety of activities.
III. INVESTIGATE
Bring out your ‘looking glass’ and delve deeper into lunar and solar eclipses, the super moon, moon orientation in the Southern vs Northern hemisphere, and the moon landing with our STEM investigations and creative writing prompts.
IV. POETRY & ARTS
Enjoy a related poetry study (with copywork), art study, and music study.
V. CREATE
Celebrate everything we’ve learned with a beautiful natural impression moon phases disc mobile and Half Moon cookie recipe.
VI. ON THE TRAIL
These nature study activities will take you outside as you make a moon phases calendar and start journaling its changing face. Hang our hand-painted moon phases banner in your nature room.
