UDL Project By: Lauren Crumbacker & Brittany Holloway
Prior Knowledge • Students have been learning about the properties and movements of the moon. • Students have been introduced to four moon phases. • Recently, students have created a phases of the moon book where they observe and draw the moon nightly. Students share their observations with their classmates.
Learning Targets/Standard • Learning Targets: • I can create a representation of the four phases of the moon. • I can label four phases of the moon. • Standard • SC-EP-2.3.3: Describe the properties, locations and real or apparent movements of objects in the sky (moon).
Overview of Lesson • Students will learn the four basic phases of the moon. • Students will create representations of the four moon phases using Oreo Cookies. • They will watch a video of the story, Papa Please Get the Moon for Me by Eric Carle being read aloud. • Students will then be shown a visual image of each moon phase. Students will be asked to identify each moon phase. • Students will then be shown how to create a representation of each moon phase using an Oreo Cookie. They will be asked to explain why this representation resembles each moon phase. • Once students have identified and created a representation of all the moon phases they will label the four moon phases on a paper plate. They will then place the four Oreo cookie representations correctly under each moon phase.
The UDL Process • The “what” of learning • Present information and content in different ways • Visual representations (video, moon phase chart & pictures) • Manipulatives (Oreo cookies) • The “how” of learning • Differentiate the ways that students can express what they know • Verbally (asking and answering questions) • Kinesthetically( creating the 4 moon phases out of Oreo cookies) • The “why” of learning • Stimulate interest and motivation for learning • - Engaging hands-on activity

Extension • Students will learn the four remaining phases of the moon • Students will be placed into cooperative groups. Each group will be responsible for one of the new moon phases. The group could then make an Oreo representation of that particular moon phase. The groups would then share with one another their representations and explain their moon phase. • Students could continue keeping a moon journal where they illustrate the moon and identify the moon phase each night. Students could continue sharing their observations in their journals with their classmates. This would allow students to continue reviewing the basic four moon phases as well as the more complicated phases.
