Planetarium and Children’s Museum
Field Trip
Mrs. Booth, Mrs. Vukmanic and I are going be working on a
project this year centered around our new SOAR Encore class. Our project launch will be a field trip to
the planetarium at the Children’s Museum of Virginia on Tuesday, December 3rd. When we return from the field trip, each
class will explore the things they saw and experiences at the planetarium. Based on this information, we will form the
driving question for our project.
