Phases of the MOOOOOOOON

In our Astronomy Science unit, we are learning all about the eight phases of the moon through demonstration models, songs, chants, oreos, and more!

1. New Moon
2. Waxing Crescent
3. First Quarter
4. Waxing Gibbous
5. Full Moon 
6. Waning Gibbous
7. Last Quarter

A few tips to help you remember the phases of the moon...

• "The moon waxes in white as it grows on the right!"
• Ask your child to teach you the moon chant we learned in class!
• Remember to fill out your lunar log every night during the week!
• Watch the moon phases videos to review: 

We also made the moon phases out of Oreos for a fun way to practice making the moon phases!

We even have our own "Moon in the Room" that shows the moon going through each phase!
