We finished up our moon unit and this is some of what we did.
Using flour and marbles, we conducted an experiment to see why there are craters on the moon. J dropped small and large marbles into the flour and noticed the craters each on made.
The moons we painted finally dried and we labeled the the phases of the moon. I mainly wanted J to remember full moon, crescent, and new moon.
I made moon rocks (squished up tin foil) and buried them in the sandbox. Of course, it had to be the coldest (it felt like it) day and we ended up hurrying so we could get back inside and warm up.
J cut some tin foil and glued it to a moon page that she was working on.
And finally, J finished her Hey Diddle Diddle puppets. We used them to practice the rhyme. We had a busy week with visitors and Kaleb being sick but we managed to get it all done. We are off to the stars next, hoping for some warmer weather - trying not to get Spring Fever!
