As a sort of finale for our moon study, I gave each of the big kids a half sheet of poster board and asked them to make a poster about the moon. Both of them focused on the phases of the moon. I think you can tell which kid excels more in language arts!

| Caleb's - given a white poster board he painted the whole thing BLACK! I think his moon looks very realistic. |
I did not ask them to include a fact card. I commented to Caleb that his poster was a little limited on details and he added the note card with some facts from a book. Annalise liked it so much, she added one too.

And so set our moon study. I really enjoyed it and I think the best thing was how much it caused us all to marvel at the moon. Even tonight I stepped outside for something and couldn't resist looking up for it. It's a day past the first quarter and brilliant. Go take a peek :)
