Description: These Earth, Moon, and Sun Boom Cards include the order of the planets as well. There are two space scenes that kids uncover by answering questions correctly. All questions and answers have an audio option. Questions range in difficulty from factual recall to more challenging analogies. The background pictures contain real NASA components plus cartoon graphics. These questions are recommended for previously taught content, although they could be used as a pretest. They are great for test review. Even if kids have forgotten the material, they will have fun uncovering the picture while learning. TEKS 5.8C Demonstrate that Earth rotates on its axis once approximately every 24 hours causing the day/night cycle and the apparent movement of the Sun across the sky. 5.8D Identify and compare the physical characteristics of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. 3.8D Identify the planets in Earth’s solar system and their position in relation to the Sun. ✎✏✐About the Author✎✏✐ June Shanahan has taught in multiple states and countries for over 25 years.
