Daily Learning Report

Today our afternoon quest was all about studying craters. We watched some videos about craters on the moon and on earth. We learned about ejecta lines that surround the larger craters on the moon. The ES learners watched a video about asteroids getting near earth in the distant future and discussed what we think humanity should do to stay safe if an asteroid were ever pointed toward a collision with earth. Then we got to try out making craters in pans of flour dusted with cocoa that mimicked the moon's surface. We were able to create some craters with ejecta lines! Can you see those lines in some of the photos?
