13 Waxing & Waning MOON PHASES NOTES
Why does the moon change shape during the month? Different shapes of moon are called phases. Shape depends on the moon’s position in relation to the sun and Earth. half of the moon is always lit by the sun, but as the moon revolves around the Earth, we see different parts of the lit half of the moon.

14 Waxing & Waning Lunar Cycle:
cycle of the moon going through all its phases in 29.5 days. 29.5 days is how long it takes the moon to revolve around the Earth once. There are 8 main moon phases.

15 Waxing & Waning Lunar Cycle:
Waxing: the lit portion of the moon is getting larger. Waning: the lit portion of the moon is getting smaller. Waxing & Waning

16 Lunar Cycle: Gibbous- larger than a ½ moon, but not quite a full moon. Crescent- sliver of the moon (less than ½). Quarter moon- ½ of the moon is lit. Waxing & Waning
