Science Fun...to the Moon & Back!

I apologize that this is our first blog, however, we have been EXTREMELY busy in the classroom! 

I do want to share what fun we have had. We had so much fun learning about the moon. I wanted to show the world our moon projects. 

The kids did a 
F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S job! After we learned all we could about the moon, we created moons with a few ingredients (black paint, soap, water, and Karo syrup.) We mixed all of that up in a bowl and had fun!



To make the craters of the moon, the kids got to make bubbles by blowing into the mixture with a straw. Then we placed a paper plate over the mixture...and voila! Just like magic you have a moon. Then, the kids wrote about the moon and we presented these wonderful moon projects on a black sheet of paper. I am so proud of my students...they are fantastic!

I have not taken pictures of the final project. I will soon! For now, they are displayed in the hallway.
