Of all the astronomical phenomena within reach of the human eye, one of the most remarkable and accessible to observation, in the different places of the planet, are the Phases of the Moon. However, several studies point to the existence of deficiencies in the teaching process learning the contents of Astronomy including this phenomenon so daily. This work makes an analytical report of a proposal for the teaching of lunar phases in the context of Continuing Teacher Training through a practical activity whose objective was to enrich the process of continuous formation for the teaching of Astronomy. The activity is based on an observational resource that allows the acquisition and construction of knowledge of the studied phenomenon. The elements of collaborative work and construction of astronomical concepts of basic education teachers in the process of elaborating a didactic activity on the Phases of the Moon are presented here.
