Welcome to The Moon Over Us Shared Project!
欢迎来到《我们上方的月
Welcome to the Moon Over Us project. This project promotes the observations of the Moon by students on different continents. Students learn about the full Moon, its distance from Earth, and how it changes its shape. Each evening they observe and sketch or take pictures of the Moon during before and after the Chinese Moon Festival when the Moon is full. Then students create webpages with their observations about the changes each day.
In the project, students and teachers from around the world exchange results and analyze the differences of images of the Moon and discuss this information by commenting on each others work.In addition, students research and share stories, legends, and poetry about the Moon. The result is an intercultural exchange of explanations about the differences of each country from the sky, the data gathering technology, and cultural traditions.
在“我们上方的月亮”里，学生可以学习更多关于月亮在空中运动的知识。在这里，来自世界各地的学生和教师分享关于月球的信息， 并且在每个人的网页上讨论这些信息。
