Begin the lesson by introducing the concept of moons as natural satellites that orbit planets. Highlight that Earth has one moon, while Mercury and Venus have none.

Engage students with a brief discussion on why moons are important for planets and what role they play in the solar system.

Explain the concept of moons using the 'What Are Moons?' video. This video provides a comprehensive overview of moons in our Solar System, emphasizing their role and diversity.

Discuss the number of moons each planet has, using visual aids or charts to help students visualize the differences.

Watch the 'Our Planet and Our Moon' video to understand Earth's unique position with one moon and the moon's phases.

Facilitate a discussion on how the moon affects Earth, such as tides and night illumination.

Conduct a hands-on activity where students model the moon's phases using a flashlight and a ball. This activity helps students visualize how the moon's appearance changes.

Encourage students to create a chart of the moon's phases and label each phase correctly.

Assign students to observe the moon over a week and record its phases. This task helps reinforce their understanding of lunar phases.

Use the 'Observing the Moon' assessment to evaluate students' understanding of the moon's movement and phases.

Review the key concepts of the lesson, including the definition of moons, Earth's single moon, and the absence of moons on Mercury and Venus.

Encourage students to reflect on what they learned about moons and how they might observe them in their daily lives.

Administer the 'The Sun, Earth and Moon' assessment to test students' understanding of the relationship between these celestial bodies.

Encourage students to explore further by researching moons of other planets and presenting their findings to the class.
