Just Like the Moon is an exploration of the moon and how we all can see ourselves reflected in the different phases. We can’t always shine our brightest. Sometimes we are shy, indecisive, or just not perfect – and that’s okay.

The web-based interactive flipbook includes three versions of the book: with spoken text only, with text and musical accompaniment, or with text, music, and vocal accompaniment.

Bundle and save! Buy this resource and the accompanying teaching guide and save $5 at checkout with the code “MOON” [this code is only good for the purchase of both resources]

 

 

Description

Just Like the Moon takes the reader on a journey through the phases of the moon. The book encourages everyone to reflect on themselves and understand that we will not always be perfect. Sometimes we may be imperfect, shy, indecisive, or quiet – and that’s okay. The book has a re-pentatonic melody accompanied by ostinati that all fit together on the final page. This book could be read in one class period or turned into a unit where students learn the ostinati and create movement to accompany the story.

Bundle and save! When you buy this resource with the accompanying lesson plan packet, you can save $5 at checkout with the code “MOON.” [This code is only good if you purchase both resources.]

Each download contains access to a web-based interactive flipbook and a PDF version of the book. Through clickable elements, engaging illustrations, and an original song, this book is truly brought to life through the vision and work of the author, Kate Bright.

    Beautiful story that goes well with SEL. My students loved making the connections with their feelings, and then orchestrating the song with classroom instruments. Lovely book!
