Venus (left), Jupiter (right), and the crescent moon form a heavenly smile
Maybe you’ve noticed it in the sky also…Two bright “stars” right near the crescent moon. To us here in Virginia, it looks like a frown, but in the southern hemisphere they see a smile. The two “stars” are actually planets. Venus is the brighter one on the left, Jupiter is on the right, and the moon is a waxing crescent. If you’d like to learn more about the moon check out my Moon Site. There you can watch an animated Flash video about the moon and play a couple of moon games. Teachers, you can download a Keynote lesson to use with your students on my Downloads Page.
