This week at Jesus Moroles Expressive Arts Vanguard in Dallas ISD, students are learning from other students.
8th-grade astronomy students at Jesus Moroles Expressive Arts Vanguard in Dallas are using the upcoming total solar eclipse as a teachable moment"We're trying to teach as many elementary students as we could about the solar eclipse," 8th-grade astronomy student Cash Contreras said."In order for them to do that they needed to be educated about the safe way to view the eclipse," 8th grade science and astronomy teacher Heather Houston said.
"Why can I see totality, but my great aunt, who lives far away, cannot?" Contreras asked a class of 5th graders."You can only see totality in part of the world where the moon's shadow is most direct." "Total eclipses are rare, but the fact that we're in the right spot at the right time to view one is amazing," Contreras said."Our kids, our grandkids, our great great grandkids will probably not be able to see one of these.""It's very nice when they get to witness, first-hand, in the real world what's going on," Houston said."I hope this moment stays with them forever."so students can look at the eclipse.
