Label phases of the moon
Standard of Learning
K.12bDraw pictures and/or
use letters and phonetically
spelled words to write about
experiences.
Assessment
Paper students create with
moon phases, pictures and
words labeled correctly.
Materials needed: cutouts of phases of the moon large enough to stand on, paper,
crayons/markers
Procedure: Do activity after read aloud with whole class, but pull students
individually or with guided reading groups once the portion of the activity where
students are moving around is done. Prepare large cut-outs of a full moon, halfmoon, quarter-moon, and stars, and make them large enough for a child to stand
upon.
Scatter the shapes across the classroom floor.
The kids form a single-file line, and then follow the teacher's directions for specific
motions while moving from shape to shape. For example, say something like: Lets
all hop to the first star. I like the way you follow directions. Now, lets all take baby
steps to the full moon. This large muscle exercise develops gross motor skills and
let the kids exert some energy. When this activity is finished, have the kids sit at
their tables and give them some paper and crayons or markers. Review the
shapes. Have them to draw and label the phases of the moon.
