AM Field Trip and PM Field Trip... Drake Planetarium and Lego Lab

ALL of the Kindergarten students had a GREAT field trip to the Drake Planetarium and Lego Lab at Norwood High School. Tuesday and Wednesday were jam packed with fun and learning activities. We made simple machines at the Lego Lab then we were amazed as we REALLY saw the sun, moon and stars in the "night sky." The students have learned new and exciting information for levers, pulleys, gears, axels, and the wonder of making a machine that REALLY works. The next time they are out in the night, they will surely be looking for Orion, the Big and Little Dippers, and telling stories about the Constellations in the "night sky."
