MOON PHASES

All Eight Moon Phases

Phase #1 - Full Moon


This is a picture of a full moon. A full moon is when the whole disc is showing. Full moons also put more light in the sky.

Phase #2 - Waxing Gibbous

A waxing gibbous moon is when there is just a little bit more than half of the moon showing, so it is like a full moon with a tiny bit covered.

Phase #3 - First Quarter Moon

A first quarter moon is when there is only half of the moon showing. Kind of like when you leave my little sister with a cookie, when you come back only half of the cookie is there.

Phase #4 - New Moon

The new moon rises when the sun rises and sets when the sun sets. It moves around the sky during the day.
