1. OBJECTIVE : SPACE Moon Phase Predictions Seasons Diagram Life cycle of Stars H-R Diagram EM Spectrum Light Years Galaxies

2. MOON PHASE PREDICTIONS  You have 3 minutes to draw and label the moon phases on your sheet of paper. Observe the position of the Sun and Earth on your paper. This will help to determine phases.  NOTE: New Moon is ALWAYS in between the sun and the Earth !!!  Waxing : Light on Right ; Waning: Light on Left  Phase Names: New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full moon, Waning Gibbous, Third Quarter, Waning Crescent

3. MOON PHASE DRAWINGS  Sun on the left

4. MOON PHASES  Sun on the right

5. MOON TIMELINE  Label the moon phase timeline in days and weeks as you move counterclockwise on the diagram.  Label Weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4  Label Days: Day 7, 14, 21, 28

6. LET’S MAKE PREDICTIONS  How many days does it take for a new moon phase to become a third quarter ?  How many weeks are there between a Third Quarter and Full Moon?  How many days are there between a new moon and a waxing gibbous moon?

7. PRACTICE QUESTION #1 :

8. SEASONS  You have 3 minutes to label the seasons for both diagrams  1. Always start with Northern Hemisphere at East and West Positions.  2. Summer and Winter are at East and West Positions.  3. If Axis is tilted toward the sun, it is summer. If tilted away, it is winter.  4. Move Counterclockwise  5. Axis points toward North Star
