Lesson plan:
Moonlight Serenade.

Divide the students into pair and distribute
one observation form to each student.

Place a lamp on a table or desk and remove the shade. Turn
the lamp on.

Stick the styrofoam ball on the pencil. Darken the room.

Have one of the pair of students hold the ball, by the pencil, at arms length
blocking out the light from the lamp. Explain they represent the earth, the ball is

the moon, and the lamp is the sun.

Comparing the light and dark side of the ball, on the observation form, under the "View
from Earth" column, have that person draw/shade what their "moon" looks like. Have the

student label this as "New Moon".

Have the other person mark the location of the moon relative to the earth and sun on the
dotted line (representing the Moon's orbit) under the "Position in Space" column.

Have the student holding the "Moon" rotate 45° counter-clockwise. Repeat steps 6 and 7.
Label this as "Waxing Crescent". Rotate another 45°. Repeat steps 6 and 7. Label this as

"First Quarter".

Repeat steps 6 and 7 for each additional 45°, labeling them as "Waxing Gibbous", "Full
Moon", "Waning Gibbous", "Last Quarter", and "Waning Crescent" respectfully. Have
the students switch positions and repeat the process again.
