We Share the Moon

We Share the Same Moon is an innovative project to create an inclusive approach to science education, by introducing science through storytelling.

​

We Share the Same Moon will create online resources including:

  • Storytelling Resource of folktales of the Moon - gathered from 176 communities living in UK - compiled as written text, audio recordings, “Kamishibai” (Japanese Story Cards) and BSL interpreted film

  • Science Resource with a range of creative activities for use with children aged between 4 - 11 years, in and out of formal education.

​

The stories will spark children’s imagination and lead them into science exploration, enabling both educator and children to enjoy learning science together, with a minimum of resources and the maximum of creativity and fun.

Country/Region

Resources will be created in cities, towns and villages across the United Kingdom - and collated online for use in science education worldwide
