The moon is a satellite. A satellite is a smaller object that orbits
around a larger one. Some satellites, like moons, are natural.
Others are man-made. People have launched man-made
satellites into orbit around the Earth to take pictures of clouds
and land forms, and to study space.
Natural or Man-Made?
Look through the newspaper and find five things that are
natural. Then find five things that are man-made.
Standards Link: Earth Science: Students know that the Moon orbits the Earth; some
objects moving in the sky are natural and some are man-made.
Standards Link: Letter sequencing. Recognize identical
words. Skim and scan reading. Recall spelling patterns.
Find the words by looking up,
down, backwards, forwards,
sideways and diagonally.
