Hi families,

I hope everyone enjoyed hearing about the Earth's orbit around the sun, and the moon's orbit around Earth. Personally, I think our highlight last week was making our own telescope lens to see small stars.

Hopefully your Junior Scientists told you all about it.

This week we will watch the moon's orbit around Earth, make our own moon phase calendar, and play with moon phases to learn about a beautiful pattern in our sky. When the moon is growing like a 'D' it is moving from the New Moon to Full Moon. When the moon is closing into a 'C' it is moving from Full Moon to New Moon. 

Science is fun! 🙂
