A Year and a Day, Issue 16: Moon
AYAAD Issue 16
Regular price $22.50It's winter, and as the last leaves fall from the trees, and the nights are at their longest, the sky seems darker and wider than ever. On cold, crisp and cloudless nights, there's nothing better than a bit of moon-gazing. Since the beginning of time, humans have looked to the moon with wonder, and with a lingering question: what is it exactly that stares back at us?
In this issue, you will discover three stories that tell us something about the nature of the moon: its origin, its phases and whether it could be a place that humans could call home. And by the time you have read this magazine, we hope that you will be able to make a moon viewer, name the moon's phases, create a lunar calendar, draw the moon, craft a moon lantern... and much more!
Activities are laid out in order, and span a suggested timeline of 3 days, making this a fabulous resource for homeschooling.

The first part of this book describes the different kinds of rocks, soil and mountains found on our planet, and explores how they came into being. This section deals with the depths of the earth, and the long ages of time.
In contrast, the second part examines the heights of our universe, in the movement of the sun, moon and stars. These bodies give us our sense of day, month and year.
Throughout, Kovacs links the phenomena he's describing with human experience, how they affect people in different parts of the world.
This is a resource for Steiner-Waldorf teachers for Classes 6 and 7 (age 11-13).
