Class 231 Meets with Worlds most Pre-eminent Astrophysicist

On this 20th day of May in the year 2009, Class 231 took a field trip to the Hayden Planetarium and conducted a seminar with Planetarium Director, Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson. Dr. Tyson answered sharp questions from students and there was an engaging hour-long discussion on topics from How big is the universe? How does the sun make energy? and How heavy is the Earth's atmosphere?

Dr. Tyson also let us touch and (try to hold) a 4 billion-year-old fragment from an asteroid that landed in the Arizona desert about 20 thousand years ago.

Dr. Tyson also gave us a list of vocabulary words which Ms. Cee recorded. Wouldn't be amazing if we could illustrate some of these words and show them to Dr. Tyson!!!

We will never forget this day!!!!

(Dr. Tyson gave us verbal permission to put this photo of him and our class on our blog)

All hail President Nicole!!!

Hopefully President Nicole will be a kind and noble leader. She is always willing to help and cemented her bid for presidency with this ground breaking re-enactment of the Gettysburg address as persevered in digital posterity by Mr. Feldman

It's Monday!

1) Did you get to do something awesome on Sunday? It was really nice out. I'm definitely thinking about a lot of field trips in some of our futures.
