The Moon unit was one of our favortites! We learned all about the solar system and the letter M.... and I had to remember that Pluto is no longer a planet! :) We were able to rent a few videos about the moon from the library, and so we watched "Little Bear Goes to the Moon" and wore our "space helmets" for that. We made "telescopes" our of paper towel tubes, we looked at the moon every night, Ellie got a solar system placemat to help learn the planet's names, we had moon-shaped pumpkin pancakes and put "craters" (choc.chips)in them, we made a moon picture, and we were planning a trip to the UTC observatory but on the day we could go it was rainy and cloudy. This unit was a lot of fun and we'll be talking about the moon all year long now! God's creation is so amazing.
