Spinning Sky Unit:

This unit helps students develop the idea that the sun, moon, and stars change position in the sky in ways that are fun to watch and predict.


In this Mystery, students develop a model of the sun’s daily path across the sky, then use this model to help someone who’s lost. In the activity, Sun Finder, students create a mobile paper model of the sun and earth to illustrate the position of the sun throughout the day.

  • School work should take 45-60 minutes of SUSTAINED work each day. If your child is having a hard time getting right to work, this may take longer as they adjust to their new routine.

  • Children thrive on routines!! Please make a schedule that works for your family and stick to it.

Be patient with your child.....and yourself. Change can be difficult. Everyone is stressed and doing their best.

Please don't hesitate to contact the first grade team if you have any questions or concerns. We want to make at home learning as easy and stress-free for your family as possible.
