I would choose The Moon activity set and focus on the different shapes of the moon on the lunar cycle.
Introduction- show the pupils an old ad for jaffa cakes which showed someone eating a jaffa cake referring to each bit as full moon or half moon. Discuss why the lady in the ad is referring to eating a jaffa cake in terms of the moon.
Development of the lesson- watch the video from this course Paxi and our Moon from you tube as he explains the 1 month lunar cycle.
Conclusion -each child gets a jaffa cake. As a whole class we eat our jaffa cakes in sync while recapping on the information given by Paxi.
