DIY Planetarium

We have been learning about stars and constellations. The culmination of our learning included making a DIY Planetarium. The students had to design a constellation and write a story about it. They also were charged with the task of going into the DIY Planetarium and carefully poking holes in the roof so that the constellation they designed could easily be enjoyed by all. This was an amazing experience overall! Please make sure to ask your children to look at the stars with you. They should be able to tell you the story of many constellations (i.e. Leo, Cassiopeia, Big Dipper, Little Dipper, Scorpius, Gemini, and Orion).
