Earth, Moon, and Sun Space Task Cards - 36 Science Cards In All Worksheets

Earth, Moon, + Sun Space Task Cards - 36 Science Cards In All Worksheets

Get your students thinking with this set of 36 Earth, Moon,+ Sun Task Cards. Several cards match key concepts that are part of many states’ curriculum standards.

The last four Earth, moon, and sun concept cards are extended response questions, which require students to provide a written response similar to the format of state assessment items. I have included a set of blank cards to allow you to create your own questions about the topic if needed. All other cards use a multiple choice format. A full answer key is included. The student‐friendly answer document allows you or your students to correct their responses about the Earth, moon, and sun quickly and easily.

You may want to work through a few cards per day as a whole class, creating discussions around the responses. These cards also work well with literacy centers, work stations, partner activities, or as part of a whole class activity like Scoot.

The cards may be printed in color or grayscale format. They look best when printed on a high quality color laser printer. They can be laminated and used year after year with no additional copying needed (except for answer forms). You may also wish to use a ring or fastener to keep the cards attached as a set.

Matches Next Generation Science standards ESS1.A: The Universe and Its Stars and ESS1.B: Earth and the Solar System.
