The Stars, the Sun and the Moon

How many years till the sun burns out? Why are stars like human beings? What has ‘wax’ got to do with the moon? Students learn the answers to these questions through pairwork, a listening exercise entitled ‘Under the Milky Way’, and two reading exercises entitled: ‘The sun’ and ‘Phases of the moon’. With the help of two Useful Language boxes, lower intermediate will find these worksheets accessible yet challenging.
