Natural Science

Energy and Change
How the moon seems to change: Light from the sun is reflected of the moons surface allowing us to see the moon. The earth blocks the light from the sun and that changes the shape of the moon we see however the moon itself does not change, the light makes it appear to change
Activity: use different materials to test which best reflect light. examples of materials like foil, a mirror
Life and living
The moon: how some animals (turtles) use the moonlight to find the ocean when they are born and is a key aspect to their survival just like the sun is a key aspect for plants to grow, both equilly important

Planet Earth and beyond
How the moon seems to change: The earth rotates around the sun and the moon rotates around earth . Light from the sun is reflected of the moons surface allowing us to see the moon. The earth blocks the light from the sun and that changes the shape of the moon we see however the moon itself does not change, the light makes it appear to change
Activity: Recreate the experiment and demonstrate how the earth blocks the light into the moon which creates the chapes of the moon

Geography

Changes from day to night: how certain countries of the world experience days where the sun never sets, places like Norway and this is due to the earth being tilted at an angle not right up.
Activity: using the experiment from Natural science showing the shadow, hold the torch where the sun shines and spin the globe showing how a certain area never went into darkness
