Content and Literacy in Science: Earth's Moon Ebook

While only 12 people have actually had contact with it, many songs and movies have featured this shining object. But it's not a superstar, or even a star at all. It's our moon. From tides and tracking time to gravitational pull on orbits, the moon affects life here on Earth. Take a trip to the moon through the fact-filled pages of this e-book!

Students will enjoy learning about the physical features and phases of the moon, tides, lunar calendars, and more through this high-interest informational text filled with vibrant photographs. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards, a hands-on "Think Like a Scientist" lab activity is included at the end of this e-book, providing students with an opportunity to apply what they've learned in the text. Helpful diagrams, including the eight phases of the moon, and text features, such as a glossary and index, are also included to improve content-area literacy and support STEM instruction.
