Since this is my last Blog of the year, I thought I would take a look at some of things we studied!

Remember Curiosity on Mars? What a landing!

Plate Tectonics was fun!  How many times did you wash those plates during the lava flow experiment?

Topo Anyone?

Hurricane Sandy

Auroras and the Milky Way Galaxy - really cool science!

We can't forget the Russian Meteorite!

The telescope project was out of this world!

How many galaxies did you classify?

Remember your Seismographs!

Your Windmills were amazing!

"Raise your hands up for the layers of the Earth!"

Dry Ice is one of the coolest substances!

Fly Baby Bertha Fly!

"Hey Guys!  It's going to be your job to get me out of this mess! I don't think I can evolve fast enough!  Send the boats!"

Of course I could keep going!  I will end with this...  As you enter this next stage of your own journey through the Universe, remember to leave your mark on this planet that defines who you are, and why you were lucky enough to be here.  

It has been my honor to be your teacher! Mrs. Frick
