In this activity, students will investigate how micrometeoroid bombardment causes regolith formation, as seen on the moon, and develop a conclusion by making inferences, based upon their observations, about the properties of lunar regolith. The activity is designed to accompany the Kids' Science News Network (KSNN) 21st Century Explorer 30-second news break entitled 'What Would You Find on the Moon's Surface?' The activity includes a teacher's guide and instructions for students, and a Spanish translation is available. Educational levels: Intermediate elementary
