I just purchased your Sun, Moon, and Stars unit. The titles on the pages Let's Explore the Stars and Let's Explore the Moon did not show up when I printed them. There is a large black line where the title of the story should be.

Thanks,
Lesa Bozeman

Hi Lesa! Thank you for your purchase. This problem sounds like it is your Adobe Reader. When it is not updated it can lead to problems with printing pdf documents (typical problem...black lines). Please try to update your Adobe and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, let me know so I can help you with the tech dept. here at TpT. Thank you!-Yvonne :)

Is the "The Sun, The Moon, The Earth, and The Stars Science Resource Unit" an actual unit? What I mean is, is it organized where it has Lesson 1 talk about and do this, Lesson 2....and so forth or is it just a bunch of resources on the sun, moon, earth, and stars?

Thanks,
Erin K.

Hi Erin! Thank you for your question. It actually is more of a collection of ideas and resources for you to use when teaching this topic. I didn't list out lesson plans day by day if that is what you are thinking. Thanks so much!-Yvonne Dixon

I am starting my student teaching assignment in January and am trying to get some materials ready. Are the materials in this unit appropriate for Kindergarten? I saw most of the comments were those that had used this for second graders.

Hi Leah, I think you could adapt most of the "activities" for all ages. The worksheets are mainly for older children but we have K teachers that use the seasons and other activities in this packet with their children. They just adapt to the level of the students. Second graders can handle the activities more independently where K-1 would need more guidance. I would not use most of the worksheets in this packet with K. Thanks!-Yvonne

Are you having a sale? Every time I put a packet in the cart I get the original price. Just thought I'd ask because maybe the sale is over. Not sure. Thanks so much. Lana
