3. The Moon Why do we see the moon if it’s not giving off light?

4. Pull out your Notes

5. Moon Notes EQ: How does the moon influence the Earth? 1.Phases of the Moon 2.Tides 3.Seasons 4.Eclipses

6. Revolution – When an object orbits around another object – The moon is revolving around the earth either being closer or farther from the sun. Rotation – Turning on an axis Depending on where the moon is, determines how much of the moon we see, reflecting light from the sun. 1. Phases of the Moon

8. Phases http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/moo n_phases/ http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/moo n_phases/ Crescents Half Full Gibbous Waning Waxing

9. Oreo Moons Create a diagram that depicts all eight phases of the moon in the correct order – Waxing crescent – Waning crescent – Waxing gibbous – Waning gibbous – Full moon – New moon – First quarter – Third quarter Show where Earth and Sun are on diagram

10. Example

11. What does the moon have to do with our tides?

12. 2. Tides The gravitational pull of the moon influences At any point in time, there are two high tides and two low tides – High tides = the side the moon is closest to (and it’s opposite) – Low tides = the adjacent sides from the moon

13. Tides Low TideHigh Tide http://i.imgur.com/8VIZt46.jpg

14. Spring & Neap Tides Spring Tide = When the moon AND the Sun cause a gravitational pull combined – Occurs at a new moon and full moon Neap Tide = When the Sun’s pull is perpendicular to the moon’s pull – Occurs at the quarter moons
