Moon journals

Just wanted to add a couple quick notes. We spend time today looking at sundials. We made connections to angles and protractors, and we used our own sundials to look at how the Sun can be used to measure time. The kids were really engaged and figuring out how the shadows change based on where the Sun is. I expect we will revisit the concepts next week, but it was a fun introduction today.

Also, a lot of the kids brought in information today about the "supermoon." In case you haven't heard about it, check this website out:


I know the entries for the moon journals will be fascinating on Monday!
