What moon phase has earth directly between the sun and moon?
The full moon. Earth is ALMOST directly between the sun and moon, so the sun is "behind" us when we look at the moon. That is why the moon appears entirely lit to us, and is considered "full". If Earth IS directly between the sun and moon, which does not happen during most full moons, then there is a lunar eclipse.
Why don't people on Earth see an eclipse of the moon every full Moon phase?
The Moon orbits around the Earth on an angle so it usually does not go directly behind the Earth. When it does move directly behind the earth, that is when we see a lunar eclipse.
Why does the earth not block the sun from reaching the moon during a full moon?
The earth does not block the sun during *most* full moons because it is not *directly* between the sun and moon. If the earth does block the sun from the moon, then the earth must be directly between the sun and moon. This will happen at full moon, since the three must be in a line, and you would see the full moon, then the eclipse, then the moon fully illuminated again.
What is the moon called when it is between the earth and the sun?
It is called a new moon (tiny part or no part of the Moon illuminated). If the Moon is directly between the Earth and Sun, it can cause a solar eclipse.
What is one way in witch earth is affected by the moon?

Why is it that the earth is not affected by the Moon's gravity?
Earth is affected by the moon's gravity. The moon's gravity exerts just as much force on Earth as Earth's gravity does on the moon, but since Earth is far more massive, it undergoes far less acceleration.
What is the blocking of sunlight to the moon that occurs when earth is directly between the sun and moon?

Mass isn't affected by gravity, but weight directly depends on it.
