Presentation transcript:

 The moon moves from east to west across the sky in an arc.

 The moon has an elliptical orbit, and revolves around the Earth.

 The moon appears largest when it is closest to Earth and smallest when it is farthest away from Earth.

 Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun on the oceans of Earth.

 More extreme tides occur when the earth, moon and sun are in a straight line.

 Less extreme tides occur when the earth, moon and sun are at right angles.

 Really are the part of the lit side of the moon that we see

1. New Moon- no lit part can be seen

2. Waxing- lit to the right, lit side growing.

3. Full Moon- all is lit

4. Waning- dark to the right, lit side shrinking.

 The phase is a crescent when less than half appears lit and called gibbous when more than half appears lit.

 When half of the moon appears lit this is known as a quarter.
