Viewing Sunspots with Cedars Montessori Upper Elementary

kalen and piper with eclipse viewing glasses and the sun funnel

I had the chance to substitute last week at my children’s school and just couldn’t help but bring my sun funnel. We looked at sunspots and learned about what causes the aurora borealis and the effects that CME’s have on our planet. It was so fun to be back at it again since my time off this past year.  Needless to say, I’m inspired to get back into teaching about any spacey =)  This photo shows my sun funnel and the transit of Venus back in 2012.
