Reply To: Module 2 – The Moon, the Earth and the Sun

[Frances McCarthy]

Patrick – as part of SpaceWeek we produce a Moon calendar each year. You can find last year’s edition here.

Please note that the Moon is visible in the evenings from the tiny crescent after New Moon until just after Full Moon – so for about 2 week of the month.

Full Moon rises at sunset, so a few days after that the children will have to be looking outside well after sunset. You might want to use images from Stellarium if the nights are cloudy to keep the observing going.
