To the Moon, Alice

We are using the My Father's World curriculum, which has been good review for Corban and great material for Abigail (who really wants to be included with school time!). Last week's lesson was on the letter M and the Moon.

while riding in the rocket ship we built in the living room

We went to the park to demonstrate the sizes and distance between the
Sun (orange), Earth (green) and Moon (black)







The moon and earth are on the quilt and the sun is at the tree line in the distance (461 steps from earth!).
