Does light help me predict how the moon moves? Explain
Answer:
The Moon gets its light from the Sun. In the same way that the Sun illuminates Earth, the Moon reflects the Sun's light, making it appear bright in our sky.
Explanation:
Answer:
Like the person above said, the moon gets its light from the the sun, and at night the moon reflects the suns light, making it visible to us in our sky.
This helps you predict how the moon moves because when the moon is directly in front of the sun, it is the full moon.
When it is the quarter or half moon, the moon isn't directly in front of the moon, but it still reflects some of the sun's light to make the moon appear that way.
As well when we have an eclipse, this means that the moon has made its way in front of earth, the moon's back facing us, but the moon's face, facing the sun.

“The Settlers” by Rowena Jackson
1 Little Bear crept closer through the tall grass until he had a better vantage point to watch the trail of wagons pass. He’d never seen white people before, though his father sometimes traded skins and bows with the men. Little Bear had heard all of the warnings, but he still wanted to see what they looked like.
2 One wagon fell behind the rest of the caravan. The rains of the past few days had turned the trail to thick mud, and the wagon’s oxen were tired. They made it another few minutes before Little Bear heard a loud crack, and the back corner of the wagon crashed to the ground.
3 Two people from the wagon inspected the broken wheel. Little Bear froze when one pulled out a rifle and fired it into the air. He crouched into a small ball in the weeds, his heart drumming in his ears. But then he saw other people running to help the stranded travelers, and he knew that the rifle shot had just been a signal.
4 Just then, there was a rustle in the grass beside Little Bear. He let out the long breath he’d been holding when he saw it was just his older brother, White Deer, who silently signaled that they needed to return home before the settlers spotted them.
5 Little Bear followed, but he paused a moment to glance back. Traveling out on the open prairie was dangerous, and the settlers were just people. He hoped the pioneer family got their wagon wheel fixed soon.
