Moon science

What causes the phases of the moon? What's a lunar year? Why do we only see one side of the moon? Find out with these fun activities.

Earth's moon was formed at the same time that Earth did. Interesting moon facts include its gravity is 1/6 of Earth and temperature range of -173°C to 127°C

The Moon goes through eight moon phases as it orbits Earth. Each moon phase shows a different percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun.

This moon phase board was fairly easy to make. After making a run to the Dollar Tree and rummaging through our science storeroom to collect the needed supplies to make this, it was pretty inexpensive and so worth every penny! Essentially, this Moon Phase board allows students to visualize and better understand the cause of moon phases and comprehend the 2 different views that are often given on a diagram (view from space and view from the Earth). Up to this point, I've done a Lunar Lollipop…
