Today we went to a field trip with our co-op.
It was a fun day for the kids with lots of hands on planet/solar system related learning.
I'll spare the details and just share the pictures.
Here is Scarlett and Colin working on their play-doh planets, they both have older siblings who are in our co-op.
Riley, Sophia and Natalee making the planets, 4 inner planets were little and 4 outer planets were larger.
Troy shared about Mercury...
Sophia didn't want to go up and share about one of the planets so Riley joined her up front for support, he is a great friend.
The kids watched a short video from Bill Nye the Science Guy about the distance between the planets.
Then they got to make a scale of the planets distance from one another and demonstrate how they revolve around the son. Here's Rusty helping (building) Troy's scale.
Last part of our visit the kids got to go in the 'star lab'. We all crawled into this dome and got to see a presentation about the stars, very cool.
