Solar Systems Galore In Yeshion House's 8th Grade Science Class


Mrs. Rusnov's 8th grade science students went "to infinity and beyond" to create models of the solar system. Students grabbed styrofoam, wire, wood, clay, rice crispie treats, frosting, paint, cardboard, pins, string and more to show the arrangement of planets around the sun. One model literally towered over the others and included LED lights. Saturn's rings were shown in particularly creative fashion. Congratulations to those students who so successfully combined art and science!
