StarLab Planetarium

      On Tuesday, our entire fourth grade class had the pleasure of receiving a visit from StarLab.  Students had an opportunity to learn more about Astronomy via this great "being there experience."  We learned about the phases of the moon, the names and their order, their relative locations in the sky and why each phase occurs, in addition to that, we learned about constellations and how to identify them in the night sky.  Below you will see our class, along with students from Ms. Mayer's class, outside of the StarLab.  Be sure to ask your child what he or she enjoyed the most about the StarLab.  We will continue with our study of Astronomy next week learning more about the Sun and its effects on the Earth, shadow's, tides and seasons.
