4 New Moon Moon is between the Earth and the Sun
The side that is being lit is facing the Sun The "new moon cycle" and is considered the beginning of the Moon's phases.

5 Crescent and Gibbson Crescent: Sliver moon (looks like a finger nail)
Gibbson: Most of the moon is visible Right side: Waxing  growing larger or fuller. Left side: Waning  Getting smaller

6 First Quarter The first quarter moon is the term used to describe a waxing moon that is exactly half-lit. The Moon is now one fourth of the way through its lunar cycle. Between Crescent Waxing and Gibbson Waxing

7 Third Quarter The third quarter moon phase is when the Moon is once again half-lit. The left side of the Moon is illuminated The moon is now three fourths of the way through its cycle.

8 Full Moon At the full moon, the Moon's face is completely bright and we see an entire circle in the sky. During this part of the cycle, the full moon rises at almost the very same time the sun is setting.
