We’ve started gearing our studies towards Ramadan and started out with the virtues of the month of Shabaan and then the moon phases so we can countdown to Ramadan.
I thought I would share some of the resources I came across or have used for this topic:
- Moon Phases Shutterfold**
- Moon Phases Cards & Pocket (younger)
- Moon Phases Cards & Pocket (older)
These are from Homeschool Share and they have many, many more moon and space related lapbook elements here: http://www.homeschoolshare.com/space_lapbook.php
Moon Phase Video
Great video that illustrates the phases of the moon.
finally, over at TJ Ramadan, I have a gangload of links for sighting the moon/moon phase activities:
