  21. We went out on to the blacktop when it was 9:08. It was a Waning Crescent and I learned that you can't see the moon because the bright side of the moon was facing the sun so that is why we can't see the moon. Also, we call the moon waxing if it is growing is because it is like waxing.

  27. I noticed that in a new moon phase the sun is shining on the moon so we don't see anything. In a waning crescent is on either side. In a new moon the sun is shining on us. A waning phase the moon is going away, in a waxing phase the moon is becoming full. One kind of moon is called the super moon and the snow moon, There is a lunar eclips and a solar eclips.

  29. Today is March 3 at 9:08am. Today I looked outside it was a clear day so I could see the moon. I did an activity where Chris was the moon, Mrs. Mangan was the sun and Mrs. Luciano was the Earth. Chris would move around depending on what phase the moon was in. This helped everyone know what side the shadow of the moon is on. I learned that the shadow of the moon is on right side of the moon when the shadow is growing. When the shadow is shrinking the shadow is on the left side of the moon.
