Lesson Description

Our Moon is unique in our solar system. It is the largest compared to its planet -- by a lot!

It's big and it's close. It also looks different at different time. We have names for these different shapes that you will understand.

When the Moon is all lit up, it is full.
When the Moon is completely dark, it is new.
