Hello Teachers! I’m excited to share a new resource that’s perfect for helping kids learn all about the phases of the moon in a hands-on, engaging way. The Montessori 3-Part Cards Moon Phases Activity Pack is designed to make learning about space fun and interactive, and I think your students will love it!

This activity pack is ideal for young learners who are curious about the moon and want to dive into the science behind its different phases. It includes everything you need to teach about the New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent—all in a way that’s simple and easy to understand.

What’s Included in the Activity Pack?

• Montessori 3-Part Cards: These cards feature the eight moon phases, helping students match the phases and learn their names and order. They’re great for hands-on activities that reinforce learning.
• Fact Cards: Each phase includes a detailed fact card that explains what happens during that phase. These cards provide extra information, perfect for kids who want to know more about the science behind the moon.
• Display Poster: A beautifully designed poster with fun facts about the moon, including its layers and composition. It’s a fantastic visual aid to display in the classroom or at home.

Why You’ll Love This Resource

Kids learn best when they’re actively involved, so I wanted to create something that would help them connect with the material in a meaningful way. The 3-part cards allow students to match the phases of the moon, while the fact cards provide deeper explanations, making it easy to expand on the topic. The display poster is not only informative but also a great visual tool that students will love to look at.

How to Use It

• In the Classroom: Use the 3-part cards as a matching activity to reinforce the phases of the moon. The fact cards can also be used to expand on each phase with more details, sparking deeper discussions.
• At Home: Perfect for homeschooling! The cards and poster make learning about the moon fun and hands-on, giving kids a chance to explore on their own or with a parent.
• For Extra Learning: Use the fact cards and poster to spark curiosity and further discussions about space. This can easily be turned into a larger project or science exploration.
