Phases of the Moon
CUSTOM MATERIALS
Phases of the Moon Activity Board (1 per student)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Moon is Earth’s closest neighbor in space, and its phases change based on the way sunlight illuminates it as it orbits our planet. After reading Moon: Earth’s Best Friend to understand the Moon’s role in our universe, kids explore each lunar phase by sculpting them out of Oreo cookies. This hands-on activity helps students visualize how the Moon appears to change shape throughout the month.
