Name Class: Date: Modeling the Phases of the Moon Leaming Intention: To construct a model of the complete cycle of the Phases of the Moon Procedure: 1. Each pair of students will recelve ontyOreo cookies 2. Separate your cookies carefuly, so that of the cookie has ALL of the frosting and the other % of the cookie has NO frosting 3. Use your plastic spoon to sorape off the frosting from the first oookle, making a shape of the waxing crescent 4. You will continue using the plastic spoon to sorape off the frosting for each of the moon phases (How will you represent new moon?) 5. Place the cookies in order on a paper plate and label them comrectly. Call over your teacher to check your model Analysis: Please use complete sentences. 1. What happens to the shape of the Moon as it goes from position 1 to position 87 2. Why does this change occur? 3. What position numbers would be included in the waxing phases? 4. What position numbers would be included in the waning phases? 5. The Moon will complete one cycle of phases in how many days? 6. How many days does it take for the Moon to go from a full Moon back to a new Moon? 7. Why are there approximately 30 days in a month?

Question
Name: Class: Date: Modeling the Phases of the Moon Leaming Intention: To construct a model of the complete cycle of the Phases of the Moon. Procedure: 1. Each pair of students will recelve only 8 Oreo cookies 2. Separate your cookies carefuly, so that % of the cookie has ALL of the frosting and the other % of the cookie has NO frosting 3. Use your plastic spoon to scrape off the frosting from the first cookle, making a shape of the waxing crescent. 4. You will continue using the plastic spoon to scrape off the frosting for each of the moon phases. (How will you represent new moon?) 5. Place the cookies in order on a paper plate and label them correctly. Call over your teacher to check your model. Analysis: Please use complete sentences. 1. What happens to the shape of the Moon as it goes from position 1 to position 87 2. Why does this change occur? 3. What position numbers would be included in the waxing phases? 4. What position numbers would be included in the waning phases? 5. The Moon will complete one cycle of phases in how many days? 6. How many days does it take for the Moon to go from a full Moon back to a new Moon? 7. Why are there approximately 30 days in a month? 8. Why does the same side of the Moon always face Earth? 9. If the moons revolution speed was half as fast as it is now, how long would it be between ful moons?
