Task 1
Prior Knowledge and Skills Required
Student should be able to
1. differentiate shapes (or phases) the Moon may have, including an almost all-black shape (new Moon), a crescent
shape, a half-Moon or semi-circular shape (first quarter and last quarter Moons), and a full circle shape (full Moon),
2. observe the Moon from home, and
3. select a picture card that is similar to the shape of the Moon on the date the student observes the Moon.
Description of Task
Student identifies phases of the Moon on three different days. This task may be administered only to students in
grade 5.
Directions for Task Administration
1. Prior to task administration, teacher prints picture cards from Extra Page 1, cuts them out, and chooses three days
on which the student is to observe the Moon from home.
Note: Teacher chooses dates so that student identifies three of the following phases of the Moon: a new Moon, a full
Moon, a quarter Moon (either first or last quarter), or a crescent Moon (either waxing or waning). To do this,
teacher can consult a Moon Phase Calendar (such as one of the following Web sites: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/
docs/MoonPhase.php or http://stardate.org/nightsky/moon/). The gibbous phases are not covered in this task.
2. Teacher writes selected dates in column 1 on page 3 work template and circles in column 2 the phase of the Moon
indicated in the Moon Phase Calendar for each assigned date.
3. Teacher reads directions from page 3 work template to student and checks for understanding.
4. Student observes the Moon at home on the first assigned date.
5. The next day, the teacher places the four cutouts from Extra Page 1 on the work space and communicates to the
student “Choose the picture of the Moon that looks most like what you saw last night.”
Note: Student may wish to draw the Moon following the observation to help remember what he or she saw. On the day
following each observation, the student selects the picture of the Moon that looks most like what he or she saw.
6. Student uses his or her most appropriate mode of communication to provide response.
Note: Student is to select only the shape of the Moon (no circle, full circle, half circle, or crescent). The correct
orientation of the shape is not required for full credit.
7. Teacher records student response on page 3 work template.
8. Repeat steps 4–7 for Items 2 and 3.
9. Teacher corrects, then completes Task 1 Summary on page 4.
10. Teacher submits Task 1 Summary information through the online Task Bank.
Responses Expected from Student
Responses will vary based on the dates assigned.
