In this activity, learners observe the moon each night for a month and draw their observations in a Moon Watch Log.

In this craft activity, learners create a string of cut-out moons and stars.

In this activity, groups cut out and sort cards showing items recovered from a crash landing on the Moon. The 12 items range from food and water to rope and matches to a self-inflating life raft.
