Oreo Moon Phases!

On Monday we got into groups of three and used Oreo Cookies to make moon phases.
We used a knife, plate and 6 or 9 Oreo Cookies. We had to make Oreo cookies into the New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter and Waning Crescent and then again New Moon.
Waning means that the moon is getting smaller and Waxing means the moon is getting bigger.
The moon takes 27 days 7 hours and 43 minutes to finish its rotation.
After we had done the task we got to eat the Oreo cookies. Yum!
