My Project

My students are constantly asking for ways to expand their knowledge. They want to hear about the world and how it works. They want to be a part of that world and put forth their ideas. They get particularly excited when we discuss the solar system.

My students want to see the stars and the planets!

My vision is to have the students learn about telescopes and scientific tools with the junior telescopes before we practice with the real thing. I want to hang planets in our school and have the students use the real telescope to see them! How much fun is that?
