This past week Mrs. Wixom's 3rd-graders learned all about the solar eclipse! Students made pinhole projectors, explored UV light with UV light beads, and made solar eclipse books. They also talked about how the solar eclipse might affect animal behavior, made diagrams of the eclipse, and learned about the importance of eye protection during an eclipse. Stay safe and enjoy the solar eclipse tomorrow, Blackbirds!
