Sun Patterns
The pictures in the Let's Start show the Sun. The Sun is our
nearest star. It gives us light and heat. It looks like the Sun
comes to the sky at sunrise. Then it looks like it moves across
the sky. First, it looks like it gets higher. Then it starts to go
lower. At sunset the Sun looks like it moves away and we
cannot see it. We see this pattern every day.
Moon Patterns
The Moon is a satellite of the Earth.
Look at these pictures of the Moon.
The pictures show the Moon on
different days each month.
It does this every month. Which of
these Moons have you seen?
Star Patterns
Look at this map of the stars.
Star maps are pictures that show the
stars in the sky. They look different at
different places in the world.
They are also different at different
times of the year.
