Pin On School Project The moon is a satellite of the earth; therefore it travels around the earth. only one side of the moon faces the sun. as the moon travels around the earth different sections of the moon reflect the sunlight. we call these sighted portions moon phases. the moon goes through a number of phases from new moon to full moon to quarter moon every month. Now that we've gone through all the moon phases, you're ready for the oreo moon phases activity! 1) put 8 oreo cookies on a plate and carefully open up the cookie sandwich so that the cream filling is left on one cookie. the white oreo cream filling represents the lit portion of the moon. when the moon is completely lit up, it's a full moon.

Phases Of The Moon Project Ideas Ireland Veronica Method & materials. you will use oreo cookies to make edible moon models, scraping off the filling to create the new moon, first quarter, full moon, and third quarter phases. compare them to see how the moon changes shape. you will need oreos, a popsicle stick or kid friendly knife and two plates. Insert the toothpick into the 2″ foam ball. paint the ball with the light gray paint then, once dry, randomly dab the darker gray paint over the gray to mimic the look of the moon. paint the toothpick black. paint the 8″ foam ball blue. once dry, go back and paint the continents with the green. This science project is interesting and unique because it allows students to observe the moon's phases over time and learn about the science behind them. also consider experiment variations to consider include observing the moon's phases during different times of the year and comparing the moon's phases in different locations. When the moon is at first quarter or third quarter, the sun, earth, and moon form an "l" shape, and the tidal bulges of the moon and the sun make the shape of a plus sign ( ). this creates a neap tide. neap tides have a smaller than normal tidal range ( lower high tides and higher low tides). figure 3.
