Oreo Lab Directions
Each group will receive only 8 Oreo cookies and a blank piece of paper.
Draw and color your Earth in the center and Sun on the side.
Separate your cookies carefully, so that ½ of the cookie has ALL of the frosting and the other ½ of the cookie has NO frosting.
Use a popsicle stick to make a shape of the Moon phase with the Oreo that has the frosting. (the frosting represents the part of the moon that we can see).
Place the cookies in order on a white piece of paper and LABEL each phase correctly. Take a picture of your Oreo Moon Phases and insert it to show your work.
Set Up Your Oreo Moon Phases Like the picture below.

In your own words, describe the term WAXING.
Match the moon phase to the correct name
