Today we kicked off our study of the moon by completing a BBK or Thinking Box activity focused on the moon. In small groups, our scientists used the activity to collectively build background knowledge . We completed different rounds to achieve our goal of answering the question, what is the moon? First, each child recorded what they already knew about the moon. Then, they recorded what they wanted to learn about the moon. Next, they were given four objects to explore and discuss related to the moon. These objects included photographs and text. After exploring and discussing the items, the scientists recorded new learning or cool facts about the moon. Finally, they recorded the most important takeaways about the moon with a focus on answering the question of what is the moon? This was a great way to build background knowledge about the moon.
