We had another after school STEM club get together.
First we had some eclipse Q & A.
One statement by a student I wasnt 100% sure about. They said that eclipses happen every 100 years. I knew that was wrong, but didnt know the exact timeframe. I thought they happened every year. And they do, 2-4 times a year (just mostly over water since the earth is mostly water). But TOTAL solar eclipse’s happen about every 18 months (I assume mostly viewable over water).
We did some eclipse art, the corona chalk art activity (oops, forgot to take pics). Some went to town and did multiple corona’s on one page.
Then we went for our walk through the Nature Trail. We were looking for “new life”, signs of Spring and new things popping. The trail area did not really have much, other than vines with some fresh leaves. There was one dandelion, a few tiny white flowers, and a patch of berries (which one student said were poisonous).
