Magan asked me if I would be able to teach the tenderhearts (1-3 grade) for a couple of AHG meetings, and that I could teach two badges related to space...YES! Of course I had to act like this was tough, but I have more fun teaching these things than the kids do. And for the first meeting, Ruby as a pathfinder got to join us. We first earned our Space Exploration badge and made the solar system, acted out the Appollo 11 moon mission, and made constellation makers to view in the dark. Ruby was an excellent mission control back in houston as the tenderhearts all traveled to the moon.
For our second badge, we earned our Living in Space badge, where we learned about the space shuttle, made some space pudding, and read a book about one of the first female astronauts, Mae Jemison from Alabama. Ruby did not get to join us for that meeting, but she was excited to build a space shuttle with me at home. And while we were working on these badges, anabelle worked on similar explorer requirements and they actually built a space habitat.
And the girls met their fundraiser goal of 125 Krispy Kreme cards...so they got to have a silly string party. And imagine that, they also had some donuts to eat at the party.
