Lunar phases
For this second outside activity that I choose was to see the moon for each clear night y write down what I saw. This activity was really interesting because it was my first time that I paid attention what and how the moon works and moves also I love the moon when it projects a lot of light. My observations started on September 20th and they end on October 20th. During this time that I was looking for the moon there were many days that I couldn’t see the moon. With this activity, I notice that each day the moon change the time that it rotes, for the first week of my observation I was unable to locate or see the moon. Later I notice that the moon was growing up and as the days were passing the moon was moving more and more to the east side. When it was a full moon about 8:30pm or 9:00pm the moon was just rising. As the days were passing I found that each night the moon was rising at later hours during the night. This last week of my observation I haven’t see the moon is because maybe the moon is in the sky but during the day. During this time that I was looking for the moon I found that we have a lot of beautiful nature unfortunately sometimes we don’t care or pay too much attention to it
