For this, I would look at the moon activity set. From a personal point of view, the moon is something that has always intrigued me with the concept of the dark side of the moon that we don’t see.
I would begin by getting the children to share what they know about the moon and then to draw a picture with the moon in it. I would then follow up by getting the children to look at actual pictures of the moon and allow them to alter them as they see fit. I have in the past given the children a worksheet to document the shape of the moon for homework. This often depends on the time of the year for how practical it is. This can work well in bringing up the idea of the phases of the moon as children discuss what they saw and what they may have expected based on previous experiences.
I really liked the idea of exploring craters and creating a moon that you could feel and where children included the mountains of the moon. This is a type of research project I could see children enjoying.
In conjunction with this, I would also look at some of the mythology that exists in different cultures about the moon. I see this going well with the man in the moon activity and getting the children engaged in more creative, imaginative activities.
