By Mr. C.

Sunshine always illuminates half the Moon’s surface. As it circles the Earth each month we see different amounts of this sunlit half. Begins with new Moon. Lasts about 30 days.

S4E2. Students will model the position and motion of the earth in the solar system and will explain the role of relative position and motion in determining sequence of the phases of the moon. b. Explain the sequence of the phases of the moon.

 Phase – cycle or process, the point or stage in a cycle  Waxing – increasing  Waning – shrinking  Gibbous – more than half

Knowing our new vocabulary what do you think the phases of the moon are? Start with a new moon and draw pictures of the phases. What do you think or what have you seen?

Chorus: Phases of the moon (snap, snap). Phases of the moon (snap, snap) Phases of the moon, phases of the moon, phases of the moon (snap, snap) It’s new then waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, and then the moon is full. The phases of the moon. Repeat chorus From full its waning gibbous, last quarter, waning crescent, and then the moon is new. The phases start again. Repeat chorus

You will need: 1 Oreo cookie for each student Popsicle stick or other tool to scrape the frosting !

 Fold up a piece of paper with the moon phase written on it and hand one to each student as they enter the room – tell them not to open it yet.  Or at the start of class have students pick a card with a phase of the moon written on it.  Demonstrate the proper way to slowly twist an Oreo to maximize the amount of frosting on one side when you separate the halves. (practice yourself, it can be tricky). *  Give each student a cookie and have them twist the halves open. Hopefully the frosting will be on one side or the other. They can always transfer frosting if needed.  Have the student retrieve their moon phases while you hand out the craft sticks.  Recreate the given phase in frosting!  For Nilla Wafers students have to bite the cookie off to represent the phase of the moon.

You will need: Paper plates Scissors Glue Markers/crayons For either activity have a visual representation of the phases for students to see.
