We present an overview of researches about the Moon and its phases from theses and dissertations, articles published in national journals and works presented in meetings related to Astronomy teaching and education. In this survey, we aimed to verify the productions, organize and analyze them especially about the School Level and the Focus of the Study, with emphasis on the Teaching Materials and Content and Method. Such survey makes it possible to identify the productions referring to the theme and to know some trends and research gap, from three different types of publications. The data shows that Moon and its phases is a thoroughly addressed subject, with most of the works concentrated in Elementary School, especially in the Final Years and that Content and Method is the focus with greater incidence. It is intended to collaborate with the dissemination of such researches to discuss its results and indicate possibilities for future researches.

Palavras-chave : Bibliographic research; Phases of the moon; Astronomy education; Astronomy teaching.
