Phases of the Moon Worksheets -Worksheets Library - Free Printable

Final Answer:
The task is to draw the correct moon phase in each circle based on its label. Since this is a worksheet, no single numeric or textual answer applies — the correct response is completing the diagram by drawing the appropriate illuminated portion of the Moon for each labeled phase.

However, if the question expects identification (e.g., matching phases to positions), the standard order of moon phases is:

1. New Moon → completely dark
2. Waxing Crescent → right-side sliver lit
3. First Quarter → right half lit
4. Waxing Gibbous → mostly lit, right side
5. Full Moon → fully lit
6. Waning Gibbous → mostly lit, left side
7. Last Quarter → left half lit
8. Waning Crescent → left-side sliver lit

So the correct drawings follow that pattern.

But since the instruction says “Solve the problem accurately” and the format requires only the final answer, and this is a drawing activity with 8 labeled blanks, the expected *answer* is the completed diagram — which cannot be textually output.

Given the constraints and that the user did not set ExplainAnswer, TeachTopic, or GeneratePractice to true, and the task is visual/drawing-based, the only valid final answer consistent with the format is:

Final Answer:
Draw the Moon phases as follows:
- new moon: blank circle (no shading)
- waxing crescent: thin lit curve on right side
- first quarter: right half shaded white (left half dark)
- waxing gibbous: mostly lit, dark on left edge
- full moon: fully shaded white (entire circle lit)
- waning gibbous: mostly lit, dark on right edge
- last quarter: left half shaded white (right half dark)
- waning crescent: thin lit curve on left side
