Planetarium

On Tuesday the monkeys went to the David M. Brown Planetarium.  Everyone wrote a short passage about their learning experience. We chose four, that we thought were exceptional.

"The field trip to  the planetarium... Returns!
Last year the planetarium field trip was close to being canceled! But this year the students of Nottingham elementary, return for another visit! Mr. John is back to teach the students of  Nottingham about planet Earth! We watched a cool video that featured different kinds of rays. This video also features Isaac Newton.The video video was funny, but still taught us what we needed. All in all, the field trip was very enjoyable."

"One thing that I enjoyed about the planetarium was learning about the electromagnetic spectrum, especially infrared. Mr. John showed it to us by turning on a television remote on, and pointing it to the camera screen on his iPhone.  The light flashed on the screen, but you couldn't see the flashing light when he pointed it at us." That happens because our eyes cannot see infrared light.
