Title: The Cosmosphere
By: Savanna Carrasco, Jacob Haberman, and John Chittenden

 The fourth graders rocked out in zero gravity when they went to the Cosmosphere. Fourth grade were in awe when they saw the I-max movie, “Sea monsters.” They popped and exploded when they watched Dr. Goddard. He did an experiment in which he dipped a cotton ball in oxygen and ice, and it blew up. It took their breath away. Another experiment was that he made a rocket. They also saw a little chapter from the past when they went through different exhibits, such as the space exhibit which shows different foods they ate in space, and when they sent the monkey into space. Then, they went outside to the USA rocket exhibit. They exploded with excitement when they saw the German bombs and the German wall.

The Cosmosphere proved to the 4th graders that there is a fun way to learn about history.
