Phases of the moon come into better focus with cookies

By Calen McKinney

First-graders at Campbellsville Elementary School recently learned the phases of the moon in Miriah Cox's and Luci Shofner's class. The students are learning about the moon and stars, and why the moon has different phases.

They learned about the new moon, first quarter, full moon, last quarter and more. As an activity, and a treat, students used cookies filled with cream to depict the moon's phases.



Students had fun taking the cookies apart and creating a phase of the moon with the cream.
