MOON,
STARS
AND
PLANETS
The
Moon
The
moon
moves
around
the
Earth.
The
moon
is
not
a
planet.
Earth
has
one
moon.
Some
other
planets
have
no
moons,
some
only
have
one
moon,
and
some
have
many
moons.
Let’s
check
what
we
have
learned
so
far:
How
many
moons
does
Earth
have?
The
Moon
Changes
Because
of
the
way
the
Moon
circles
the
Earth
and
reflects
the
light
of
the
Sun,
we
can
see
a
different
amount
of
the
Moon
each
night.

This
daily
change
in
what
we
see
of
the
Moon
is
called
the
Moon's
phases.
A
new
moon
can’t
be
seen
on
Earth.
The
side
of
the
moon
that
is
facing
the
Earth
is
not
lit
by
Sun.
The
entire
Moon
phase
cycle
takes
about
29
1/2
days.
Let’s
check
what
we
have
learned
so
far:
What
are
the
daily
changes
of
the
moon
called?
Stars
A
star
is
a
hot
ball
of
gas.
Stars
give
off
light.
The
Sun
is
a
star.

have
learned
so

What
is
a
star?
Planets
A
planet
is
a
large
object
that
orbits
around
the
Sun.
Orbit
means
to
go
around
in
a
path
around
something.
Planets
do
not
give
off
light.
They
just
reflect
sunlight.
Reflect
means
to
bounce
off
of.
There
are
8
planets
in
our
solar
system:
Mercury,
Venus,
Earth,
Mars,
Jupiter,
Saturn,
Uranus,
and
Neptune.
Pluto
used
to
be
considered
a
planet
but
it
is
now
known
by
scientists
as
a
dwarf
planet.
A
telescope
helps
us
see
stars.
It
is
a
tool
that
makes
things
that
are
far
away
look
close.
