Now, ask the students if the Moon looks the same every night. Use this discussion to lead you to the Key
Notes in the W.O.W. After discussing the Key Notes use the following website to demonstrate the phases
of the Moon: http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/moon_phases. As you go through each phase have
students use a yellow colored pencil to color in the bright part (what we see) of the Moon.
