• SC.K.E.5.3: Recognize that the Sun can only be seen in
the daytime.
• SC.K.E.5.4; Observe that sometimes the Moon can be
seen at night and sometimes during the day.
• SC.K.N.1.1: Collaborate with a partner to collect
information.
• SC.K.N.1.2: Make observations of the natural world
and know that they are descriptors collected using the
five senses.
• SC.K.N.1.3: Keep records as appropriate - such as
pictorial - of investigations conducted.
• SC.K.N.1.4: Observe and create a visual representation
of an object which includes major features.
• SC.K.N.1.5: Recognize that learning can come
from careful observation.
The sun can only be seen
during the daytime.
The next two slides are pictures of the
Sun.
The Sun rises at dawn as daylight
occurs on different parts of our Earth. A
wondrous sight to greet us each
morning!
What causes the day time sky
and the night time sky?
 It is day time in the part of
Earth facing the Sun.
 How does the sky change
during the day?
 It is night time in the part of
Earth facing away from the
Sun
 How does the sky change
during the night?

What is the sun and why do all
living things depend on it?
The Sun is the closest star to
our planet Earth and provides
light and energy for Earth.
Can you see the sun in the daytime and the
moon in the nighttime?
The Moon can be seen in the day and night sky.
The moon is a satellite of Earth and
the closest object in space to Earth.
What can scientists do to study
different phases of the moon besides
make voyages into outer space?
What are you wondering now?
Is the Man in the Moon
real or make-believe?
