Night Sky

We have to make a family science project each month and this month was the night sky.  Here is a couple pictures of the finished project.  He is very proud of it and asked if I could come to school for his {10 second} presentation.  Of course I will!  I emailed his teacher to make sure she was ok with it so back to school we will go today!  I will probably video it for his daddy to see and possibly take a picture for the rest of you to see him.  What a sweet boy to ask me to come!

 

 We added poster lights for more effect.  The moon is a styrofoam ball half.  I spray painted it white and when I tried to get down in all the crevices, the paint ate away some of the styrofoam but in the end it worked out nicely b/c it looks like craters.

He doesn't look proud of it in this picture.  He was a little annoyed with me for making him take another picture.  When we turned it in yesterday, his teacher made him feel like it was the best project she has ever seen.  I love that about her.  She makes them all feel so special!
