Moon Phases

The moon does not give off its own light The moon does not give off its own light. It reflects light from the sun. Like a flashlight shining on a mirror!

Look for the pattern! Check out the right side!

As the moon orbits Earth, we see different phases! The right side always lights up first. The right side always gets dark first. Then the pattern starts again!! *Draw this!!!

The right side lights up first! The right side gets dark first! *Does your drawing look like this?

March 2013 Since the moon follows a pattern we can predict what the moon will look like years from now!

Now draw the moon like this and fill in the rest: Last Quarter Full Moon New Moon First Quarter

**You need to know these terms: When you can’t see it. New moon Only see the right half. 1st Quarter moon Full Moon You see the entire side. Last Quarter moon Only see left half.
