Does the moon rotate and revolve at a slower rate than the earth?
The Moon rotates on its axis in the same time that it takes to orbit the Earth. So, one side always faces the Earth, and the other side faces away from Earth.

Are the phases of the moon caused by the positions of the earth and moon?
Yes. The earth rotates around the sun. The moon rotates around the earth. What make the moon bright is sun light reflecting off its surface. When the moon is full, the side that is facing the earth is also facing the sun, thus the entire moon is lit. As the moon rotates around the earth, the side facing the earth turns away from the sun and isn't illuminated as fully; the moon moves to the next phase.
Why is Earth's surface warmer in the Northern Hemisphere when it is summer?
The earth goes around the sun, and it takes a year to do that, but the earth doesn't change it's axis. It stays tilted a bit, and rotates daily, but not around the sun in one day. So in the year that it is going around the sun, the equator is in the same place, but for 1/2 of the year the Southern Hemisphere is closer to the sun, and the northern hemisphere is further away. Then in the next 6 months it is the opposite because the earth is on the opposite side of the sun, so then the southern hemisphere is further away, and they northern is closer. So this is how the seasons change.
