I just posted a six-week naked-eye astronomy unit I developed as an elementary school teacher, decades ago. The documents are a little shabby, but the lessons should work in grades 4 and up.

Henri Picciotto
I have retired from the classroom after 42 years as a math teacher in K-12 — from counting to calculus. I now work with teachers and schools, and I continue to develop curriculum.
I share instructional materials on my Math Education Page, and my views on math education on this blog. Also on this blog, announcements about: new pages, updates, etc. on the site; my publications; my appearances at conferences; and my other activities in math education.

Apologies
All the comments between August 2013 and June 2016 got deleted at once by Google when I disconnected the comments from Google+. I had to disconnect because otherwise it was impossible to remove spam. Apologies to all the commenters.
