The moon

The moon is like a face that wears different masks. You have probably noticed that the moon changes its appearance every few days. That is because the moon travels around the earth . The change in the moon’s appearance happens when the sun lights up different parts of the moon.

Half of the moon is always in sunlight .That does not mean you can always see the half that is illuminated .however , each time the moon’s appearance changes, the moon has entered a new phase . The first phase of the moon is called the new moon . During this phase, you can not see any part of the half that is illuminated . The part of the moon that faces the earth is dark .A few nights later , the moon has turned enough so that a small part of it is visible . This phase is called the crescent moon . After about a week , you can see the half of the moon that faces the earth .

This third phrase is called the first quarter moon .After another week passes ,there will be a full moon .This is the phase when you can see the entire half of the moon that is illuminated .The next three phases of the moon go in reverse order .They are the last quarter , the crescent moon , and the new moon . It take about 27 days for the moon to complete all its phases .

The second time the moon is full within a certain month is called a “blue moon .”This event does not happen often . A blue moon appears only once every few years, when the date of the first full moon is at or near the beginning of the month . The expression “once in a blue moon” comes from it .

look at the pictures and write down the names of the different phases of the moon

1.the new moon 2.the crescent moon 3.the first quarter moon

6.the new moon 4.the last quarter 5.the crescent moon

1. Why does the moon always change its appearance?
