Here's a fun printable activity to help kids understand the relative size of the sun and moon and what happens during a solar eclipse. Print and cut out the sun and the moon (laminate them if you wish), stick a craft stick to the back of each then follow the instructions on the worksheet - kids just need a friend to help them!
Use these cards as a matching activity, or a fun quiz to test your friends! We've got two versions. The first provides a number to help children match the cards correctly. The second leaves them to their own devices!
Count down with this fun, simple printable ... 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - Blast Off! You could put it up on your whiteboard or screen and click through the pages while the kids call out the numbers.
Have you ever seen the moon change shape in the sky from a thin crescent to a full moon then back again over a lunar month? There are eight named phases of the moon, and these cards are a fun way to help children learn them.
