Kindergarten Science · World 2: Day Turns to Night · Level 10
During the Night
The sky is dark, and we may see the moon and stars.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 10
- During the night, the sky is dark. We may see the moon and lots of stars.
- Like the sun, the moon seems to move slowly across the sky during the night.
- Most people sleep at night. Some animals, like owls and bats, wake up and look for food!
- Then the sky slowly gets lighter, and night turns into day again.
- Try it with a grown-up! Before bed, look for the moon and stars. Draw what you see.
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:
- SKE1.b — Develop a model to communicate the changes that occur in the sky during the day, as day turns into night, during the night, and as night turns into day using pictures and words. (Clarification statement: Students are not expected to understand tilt of the Earth, rotation, or revolution.)
