Saanich Moons Investigation
Created for Middle School grade 6/7
Created By Karen Coppen
*We respectfully request that this set of lessons be saved for the middle school grades*
Throughout the year we will explore the Saanich Calendar that is made up of thirteen different moons.
Each moon speaks to the weather, plants, animals, economic, and cultural activities that come with that time of year. You will also have a chance to reflect on what each season brings for you and your family.
