Let’s go step by step to solve this quiz.

Part I: Drag the words in the box (1-3)
We have a picture with three parts:
- The sun (bright, orange, daytime side)
- The moon (yellow crescent, nighttime side)
- Stars (tiny dots on the dark blue night sky)
The word bank is:
moon, sun, small, cold, heat, gas, star, light
Now let’s match each arrow:
→ Arrow pointing to the
sun: That’s clearly the
sun.
→ Arrow pointing to the
stars: Those are tiny points of light — they’re called
star (but since it says “drag the words”, and we can use them once, we’ll pick “star” for one star dot). But note: question 4 says “stars are balls of ___”, so maybe “gas” goes there? Wait — let’s look at all questions first.
Actually, looking again — the diagram has 3 boxes to fill:
Top left box → points to the
sun → answer:
sun
Right top box → points to a
star (one of the little sparkles) → answer:
star
Bottom right box → points to the
moon → answer:
moon
So for 1-3:
1. Sun
2. Star
3. Moon
*(Order may vary depending on how arrows point, but based on typical layout: left = sun, top right = star, bottom right = moon)*

Now questions 4–8:
4. The stars are balls of ________________.
Stars are made of hot glowing gas — mostly hydrogen and helium. So the best word from the box is
gas.
✔ Answer:
gas
---
5. The sun gives light and ________________.
The sun gives us light and also warmth — which is
heat.
✔ Answer:
heat
---
6. The moon is ________________ and rocky.
The moon doesn’t produce its own light or heat. It’s not hot like the sun. In fact, when it’s not facing the sun, it gets very
cold. Also, it’s rocky — so “cold” fits here.
✔ Answer:
cold
---
7. The stars are very far away so that is why they look very ________________.
Because they’re so far, even though some are huge, they appear as tiny dots — so they look
small.
✔ Answer:
small
---
8. Stars have their own ________________.
Stars make their own light — unlike the moon, which reflects sunlight. So stars have their own
light.
✔ Answer:
light
---
Part II: Match
9. You can see the moon and the stars at..
Moon and stars are visible at night — so
NIGHTTIME
10. You can see the sun at..
Sun is out during the day — so
DAYTIME
