Today, I was sharing resources with an educator about the misconceptions around the moon and activities that might be helpful in teaching students the moon phases. She was interested in learning more about misconceptions and the impact they have on learning. I have included some of the resources that I shared around the moon and additional resources around misconceptions. If you know of resources that might be helpful, please email me at [email protected]. Thank you.

Richard Konicek-Moran, who is an NSTA Press author and one of Page Keeley’s mentors, co-wrote the book Teaching For Conceptual Understanding in Science with Page. I have attached a link below to a sample chapter. The book is a great resource helping students understand science at the conceptual level so they can see its connection to other fields, other concepts, and their lives.
Favorite science-related picture books aligned with the National ScienceEducation Standards for kindergarten through grade 6.
