Welcome to My Moon Blog!!

Welcome to my Moon Blog!!  I am excited to be observing the Earth's Moon and its phases for the next 30 days.  I know that I am going to learn so much about the Moon that I will one day use in my future elementary classroom.

Unfortunately, it has been a very cloudy day making it impossible to view the Moon.  Based on what I have learned about the Moon's phases, I have drawn a sketch of what I believe the Moon looks like today.


Today's Moon is a "waxing crescent" meaning that it will slowly illuminate as it moves toward the next Full Moon. 

Hopefully the weather will cooperate tomorrow, and I will be able to actually see the Moon and document its phase with a photograph.
