Veritas Students Go to Outer Space!

When Mrs. Cooper's 3rd and 4th grade class began to study astronomy this year, little did they know to what "heights" it would take them. But Tuesday, 22 April 2008, not only did they go "lunar" but the entire school went with them! It all started with a special project called "Walk through Space." Each student in the class had to do research, prepare a report, and design/build a display about some aspect in the universe, e.g., one of the planets, the sun, the moon, the stars, or space travel itself. When the project was complete, Mrs. Cooper, having built a space shuttle herself (no small feat!), took the school class by class, along with a number of parents, grandparents, and siblings, on tours of outer space (in the auditorium), costumed students each representing and giving information about his particular "heavenly body," etc. Children and adults alike had a "blast." And Mrs. Cooper and her children did an outstanding job. Although it was hard to come back down to earth, everyone came back knowing more about the wonderful heavens God has created and delighting in them to His glory.
