Meteor Shower Tonight!

I was very excited as I drove to work today because I saw THREE 'shooting stars.' I thought that seemed like an odd occurrence, so I did a little research. Tonight is actually the peak night for the Geminid Meteor Shower! If you are up after dark, take a look outside (best between 10pm and 2am) and enjoy the display! This will be the first time I have every actually witnessed a meteor shower. I informed all of the kiddos about it, so if they are asking questions you can look up more information through a Google search. :)

Here are some more wonderful projects!!! If you want to see more, send me a message. I am only allowed to add so many photos each time I post. :)

Science Projects!!

Just before Thanksgiving, the students were assigned to complete a Tic-Tac-Toe Choice Board in Science. The boards gave many different choices of activities including: creating a diagram of the solar system, developing a travel brochure for a planet, writing a story about space exploration, making a model of a planet, etc. I took some picture of these amazing projects. I wasn't able to photograph every single one because my blog would have WAY too many pictures. I was very proud of the effort put forth by my incredible third graders!
