Harbour Oaks Montessori at Charlie Elliott 9/24/2012

25 September, 2012 (15:39) | Observing, Outreach | By: tramakers

We did two events for Harbour Oaks Montessori school who was visiting at Charlie Elliott. At noon we let them observe the sun and showed them how tiny we are in our solar system.  In the evening they learnerd more about the solar system and the planets and saw a special presentation about the NASA’s MSL Curiosity Rover and learned how it got to Mars, and then they observed the moon and some night time sky objects.  It was so great to do this for the fourth year in a row for this fine school.
