This week students started preparing for their field trip to Morehead Planetarium. All grades will learn about earth and outer space in their classrooms, so this is a great chance for students to learn the concepts and vocabulary they will need to understand their classroom lessons.
Students started learning the following vocabulary, and more: moon, planet, sun, star, galaxy, orbit, constellation, around, group of, part of, close, far.
We also had a guest astronomer, Ms. Kathy, join us to share many new facts about space. The students had many questions to ask, and worked very hard to communicate their questions in English!
