Research
This tab of the website is filled with research from the "I Wonder...." statements. On this page, you will learn about constellations, mission badges, and many other awesome topics. We all have had tons of fun researching new things every day and now we want to share our findings with you.
Constellations and Mythology
While exploring space, we stumbled upon constellations. Throughout the year, our amazing elementary students have come up with their very own constellations! Not only did they have to be original, but they had to fit in with the modern world. From VSCO to Apple Watches, these kids did fantastic work. Also, for fans of mythology, there is a lovely book report from our very own seventh-grader, Zoe Coffman.
Mission Badges
This carousel of pictures shows the "Mission Badges" that kindergarten through third-grade students made. Mission Badges are kind of like the achievement or trophy you would get after completing a certain part of the museum. Below is what they envisioned. To the right is the one Mrs. Sperry made for the museum.
