Sunny Side of the Moon
Ms. Graber and Ms. Peck-Wiegand brought their second grade class from Pleasant Valley to the Planetarium today for the Sunny Side of the Moon Program. The Pleasant Valley second graders met Sunny the Dog, and helped him to learn about the moon so that he could be come an astronaut! They sang songs about the moon, identified the different phases and figured out that the phases change because the moon revolves around the earth. Here are a few pictures from their visit!
Astronomers of the Day
At the end of the visit each teacher chose their Astronomer of the Day. These students exhibited the participation, listening and questioning skills needed to make a great astronomer! Congratulations to our Astronomers of the Day!
