Summary
The reason the moon kept
changing phases or shapes is because the way the sun, moon and the earth faces
each other It depends in all of their position. Lunar
revolution is when the revolves around the earth and the length is 29.5 days for one revolution. The moon
changes in many different shapes like the new moon when the full moon between the
earth and the sun, We usually cannot see It because the sunlight reflect on the
other side of the moon so the part we see is totally black. There is other
phases like the waxing crescent, We only see a little part of the moon but It
gets bigger than the previous one. Quarter moon is the time we can see only
half of the moon.
Gibbous moon is the moment we
can see more than half of the moon but not all of It still gets bigger and
bigger. Full moon is when we can see the whole entire moon. Starting there the
moon starts waning that mean decreasing smaller and smaller and follow all its
steps again from waning crescent to New moon.

Critical thinking question
How is earth affected by movement revolution?
The earth is affected by movement revolution because whenever the moon and the the earth attract each other the ocean tides increase, It's called gravity. And on earth we see the moon changing phases that is because It depends on the earth moon and sun position. Earth revolution cause why we have different season's on earth.
