4. 1. “Gone”
When the moon is between the
sun we cannot see the moon at
all
This is called “New moon”
This is because the side of the
moon does not get sunlight
6. 3. First
quarter This phase happened after about
a week of new moon
The moon is only half of moon
that’s why its called “First quarter”
7. 4. Waxing
gibbous
Two or three days after the First
quarter more than half of the
moon shows
This phase is called Waxing
gibbous
8. 5. Full moon
About two weeks after new
moon we see the Full moon
This is because the full side of
the moon facing earth gets
sunlight
9. 6. MORE
The next phase is the waning gibbous
Then the last quarter
Then the waning crecent
That’s it!
