1. “Phases of the Moon” Project
Celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋節)
Dear Parents,
We are going to do “Phases of the Moon” project from September 1 to September 27.
The purpose of this project is to have students observe the changing of the moon through
one month cycle. Due day for this project is 9/28.
Here are the materials needed for this project:
2 pages of the “cut-and-stick moons” paper (provide)
1 September calendar for students to cut and paste the moon (provide)
Scissors and glue
If the weather is not permitted for moon observation or your house location is blocked by
mountain or other buildings, I suggest your child team with other classmates to finish this
project. You may look at the internet for reference as well.
September 30 is Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival (aka Moon Festival 中秋節). We are going to
wrap up this project by having a small party during our Mandarin period on 9/28. If parents
would like to provide/donate moon cakes and share with the class, please let me know.
月到中秋分外明
