Science in Room 6 has been fun this week!  On Monday we made a scale model of the solar system using ourselves.  It is impressive to see how far apart the outer planets are.  Poor Carlo was practically out of sight.  Can you guess which planet he was?  
Then today our student teacher, Ms. Coddington, led students in an experiment designed to help students learn how craters form on the moon.  It was fun and it smelled like cookies!  Students measured marbles and then measured the craters they made on the moon's surface.  The moon's surface happened to be flour covered with cinnamon.  Yum!
