What would happen if the earth had no moon?
Students investigated and reported on topics of light pollution, relationships between the rise and set times of the Moon and Sun, phases of the Earth (as seen from the Moon), crime rate during a full Moon, birth rate during a full Moon, tidal forces caused by the Moon, cow milk production at various Moon’s phases, planetary phases, and Jupiter’s moons’ phases. These follow-up inquiry investigations combined statistical mathematics, scientific data collection, and narrative perspectives in uniquely blended unison. Table 2 displays the mathematics utilized in each of the investigations in order to answer their research questions. Conclusions Students displayed throughout their inquiry investigations an increased ability of communicating what they do know, and questioning what more they need to know by coupling their experiential learning with opportunities to construct new thoughts and questions. They communicated what they knew through sketches, narration, and tabular and graphical rep
