Astronomy

Hey there Space Cadets!
We are just starting our new unit on Astronomy - that is the study of space. It is something that I have been interested in for a long time. I had some great science teachers along the way that started me on my quest to learn all I could about space!
Here is my question for the week:
How are objects in space related to each other? How do they affect each other? Post your answer as soon as you can and don't forget to look up!

NorthBay Visit

Thanks so much to Meghan, Naema, Brandi, Steve, Kristen, Andy, and Raser for making the long journey down to Caroline County to help us bring the NorthBay experience home. I know that everybody had a great time and also learned a thing or two about our place in the environment.
What was your favorite part of the day? I really enjoyed the nature trail walk with my homeroom and using the high-tech equipment in the water quality studies. I know that my least favorite was when I couldn't get the projector to work in the cafeteria! That was a little embarrassing! by the way, I will upload that video to my website (http://honerscience.wikispaces.com) as soon as I get the chance.
Thanks to everyone who made the day a success!
Post a comment when you get the chance!

Back From North Bay

WOW! What a great trip! I really enjoyed my time this year getting to know all of my students in a new setting and learning to face my fears and challenge my self in new ways. I also really like the opportunity each year to meet the educators and other staff at NorthBay. The lessons were great (as always) and the NorthBay message of being a filter and getting rid of invasives in your life is so important. I hope that this is a message that we can carry through the rest of our lives.
What was your favorite moment during the NorthBay week? What will you remember and talk about for years to come? How did NorthBay affect you? Post your response this week.
