Constellation Fun!

Our Converse 1st grade DLI students are studying the Space Unit in Science and learning about stars, exploring why constellations exist, how they are formed, and much more. As part of this unit, students participated in a hands-on activity with Play-Doh and toothpicks to recreate constellations like Ursa Major, Aquarius, and others. We love to see the creativity of our teachers and the engaging lessons they create for our students.
