Above and Below Week 7 Day 1

We started the morning off with a get to know you name game and Gratitude Circle. Then we discussed space rocks (what they are, where most of them are orbiting in our solar system, the different types, etc). Then we did a riddle hunt to find and label our What’s that Space Rock chart. Then we explored the largest and oldest Craters around the World. On the field, we played Ten Pin Meteorite Challenge (answering questions about space rocks in order to remove the other team's pins and knock the rest down). After the game, we had snack and played at the obstacle course. Then we did some Meteorite Art (balloons filled with paint and an Alka Seltzer paint reaction that makes cool crater impact designs). After lunch, we went to the creek to explore and cool off. Lastly, we discussed ideas for their original play which they will perform Friday at 2pm. Also we have camp tomorrow (July 4th)!
