Moon Phases

This week in language arts one of the focus stories concentrated on the phases of the moon. What a great way to incorporate science into language arts, right? To help the children have a better understanding, and to have some fun, the children were grouped and used Oreos to create the phases of the moon. I gave each group a paper with all of the moon phases and assigned each group a couple of the phases. Once everyone finished they shared their moons and a little about their experience. Such a great and yummy way to teach moon phases!

St. James had the opportunity to watch Tiger Theater’s presentation of Annie. There were two current St. James students in the play and several St. James alumni. It was a terrific production. We have so many talented students in our community.
