Im interested in Plate Tectonics because I find it interesting that the earth's plates move and cause some natural disasters like Earthquakes and Tsunami's. I still want to know why the move and how they move. Mabey because of the Earth's core?

Duebber, Jenna said...

I'm interested in Plate Tectonics because I find it very interesting and amazing that all of natural land features like moutains, valleys and canyons form. I think I will love this lesson. I want to know how they move. Maybe because of Earth rotating?

Giblin, Keegan said...

Im very excited to learn about astromany and the solar system. I really want to learn about this because I have been fascinated about the solar system since I was very young.

imushrush said...

I am most excited about learning about about animals they are so amazing on how they help us. Even the nasty ones like flies. I allready know that they are nasty and craw on are food but they help us find out a murder by going on the body.

A, Owen said...

I am interested in plate tectonics because I've heard a little bit about them, but I don't know exactly what they are. I believe that there were plates in the Earth that move and shift, and I've seen a little bit about them on the History Channel.

Royer Rachel said...

Im very interested in the Solar System because there are still so many mysteries to be solved.I want to know how our planets formed and how did the sun form?

Royer Rachel said...

Keegan i feel the same way about you and the solar system!
Have you ever thought of being an anstraunt?

Cecil,Tommy said...

i think space and the solar system are the coolest when ever I hear its going to be clear I get up at around 5:00 grab my telescope and go outside. Its so clear because not so many lights are on outside. It can get cold but man its worth it.

Sean Laake said...

Keegan I also like Astronomy but I really want to know about Plate Tectonics because if we can harness the power of the plates, hurricanes like Katrina would never happen!

Im interested in learning about the solar system because there is so many things i still want to know about the solar system. Like how planets were formed, ect. I remember learning about all the planets and stars and how everything revolves the sun. I am excited to learn more this year.

Anonymous said...

hey im really excited about learning about the sloar system i liked space and solar system also i like plate tettonics what ever that is im excited to learn about it. peace buzz lightyear is real

Kilgore, Sydney said...

I am also interested about that Anthony..Do you think its true about 2012 and the sun blowing up. I dont know if i berlieve it, but i heared that it's suppose to happen one day and that we wont be able to survive without it.

PAPATHANAS,ANTHONY said...

Im intrested about learning about the solar system. I want to know how the world was created and what would happen if the plants started to blow up. How would it effect us and would we be able to survive if the sun blew up.

kaleb.quinlan said...

I am excited to learn about astronamy, because i love learning about the planets. I also love to learn about how the earth started and about all the different stars.

Hailey Hoover said...

i am interested in space because it seeems like whenever sceinctists look at space or travel there they find something new and that's what i like about it. Space is full of wonder and and excitment and i find that interesting.

Park Deborah said...

Im looking forward in learning about rocks and minerals because since i was little i always bought cool colorful rocks from the museum and i love the different colors they can be and how they look. I want to learn how rock's and minerals because im wondering how they got their colors

oleary stephanie said...

i am interested in earth and space and rocks beacause i like to know about things in space and rocks and minerals are sometimes pretty and i like to learn whats in side them and what different rocks are made from

kiphart,shane said...

Hi its shane kiphart my favorite topic to talk about is eploring the solor system because i fasonate stars planets and UNKNOW planets well i know that the earth is the third planet for the sun and also the earth weighs 131700000000000000000000000. the sun has 99.999 percent mass.have great day:]:]:]

Evan Triplett said...

I have always wondered how the solar system came to be and now I can find out.

Jaspers.Abby said...

Im interested to learn about the solar system because I think it is interesting to learn about things we can see or prove. I also am excited to learn about plate tettonics because i don't know what it is and am curious to learn about it!

Sean Laake said...

Jenna I think its also amazing that they formed everythin from the seas to the mountains. But I don't think its because of the rotation of the earth. I think its the earths core because its made from magma and rock and its swirlng so it kinda moves the rocks and minerals.

Reichling,Alex said...

I am interested about learing about rocks because i like the crystalized rocks that come from caves and other areas.

Brady Farmer said...

Im intrested in the solar system. I am intrested in the solar system because I learned about some of the solar system last year. And there is a lot more about the solar system that I want to learn.

McGinnis,Ben said...

I want to learn obout the solar seystem and the plantets.
I know there is 2 planets between the sun and the Earth and the Earth has 1 moon. i know there is only 8 planets in the solar system

Breadon,Zac said...

im excited about weather because i like diff

Hutson,Caleb said...

i am commenting on kegans post i agree with kegans post about how he is very excited about astromany i have always liked leanring about that and cant wait to learn more

I can't wait to learn about our solar system it seems very intresting I really wanna learn how hot the sun is. And I wanna learn about the moon and who all has been on that rock in our solar system.

freel,amanda said...

I think I'm excited about learning about the Solar System, because we live on one of the planets- Earth. Also, the Sun gives us daylight and helps us live, I think?

gorman,kyle said...

I am very interested in the solar sysyem. I want to larn about the solar system because when the space station went over a couple of night ago I would go outside and look for it. Also I have a telescope and I go out at night.

klingelhoffer,sawyer said...

Im am interested in learning about the solar system and astonamy.because there is things that i still want to know about in the solar system

Anonymous said...

I am interested in learning about the solar system. I've always thought that space was an exciting subject to learn about. In 5th grade we studied space a little bit, but not a lot. We mostly learned about earth's rotation, which was not very exciting. I would like to learn about the other planets in the solar system.

Ryan Bussard said...

I'm most excited about learning about black holes commets and stuff like that. I don't know much about these topics but I want to know lern more.

dylan said...

im excited to start learning about space and earth science because i always found it intresting how the earth works and what goes onoutside our world and how it works out there and if there is humen life outside our world?

dylan said...

yea tommy that was so much fun the stars are so cool they look so little but they are actually very big

i want to learn about animals :)

coors amber said...

Commenting on Ryan Bussard
I am excited about learning about
black holes also!! I think they are so cool!
I think of them as a brain teaser cause I
can never fully imagine how they work.
I have also heard so many theroies
about them and hope to find out some
day if they are true or not!!!

Madison Schnell said...

I am really excited to learn about the solar system and the planets. I remember learning about the solar system and I was really interested. Learning about the planets rotations' is one of the solar system topics I like the most.

Madison Schnell said...

Amber and Ryan, I am interested in learning about the black holes also. To me they seem so mysterious and i don't really know how they form or what they're made of.

Sheridan,Megan said...

I can't wait to learn about plate tectonics because I have never heard of that before but I think it has something to do with the earth.

Dorrington, Madison said...

I am most excited about the solar system because it is so interesting to learn about all the planets and stars.

Madison Dorrington

Bass,Zoey said...

i am most excited about learning about the solar system. i think its fasinating how scientist found out so such about the galaxy.

I'm very excited about learning about astronomy and plate tectonics! I think i will enjoy this year! :)

Wall, Alexandra said...

I would like to learn about the solar system. I think it will be interesting to see how everything works in space.... I am also really excited about space camp:D!!

Wall, Alexandra said...

I sw Ryan was talking about black holes... do they really exist??

i am interested in learning about the universe and space because ive never really studied it and dont know much about it

Buelterman,Abbey said...

The thing I'm most excited about space camp because we will be learning about space because my dad always talks about it and its very interesting!

Ryan, Marissa said...

Im excited to learn about Plate Techtonics because that is very interesting to me how the earths plates could move like that. Its bizzare. Im excited about the solar system and astronomy too because i think its amazing how a star can be millions of years old! Its crazy, and very fascinating!

Ryan, Marissa said...

Rachel and Keegan I feel the exact same way! Even when i was little I lovvvved looking at sky at night and looking at the stars and I always thought I would see another planet up there!

Mrs. Martz said...

We have had a very hectic start to the year. Currently we are investigating the reasons for the day - night cycle and why we have seasons in the northern hemisphere. Keep observing the moon. We will need this in about a week

Kamilah Williams said...

sorry mrs martz i am very late on this on this one sorry about that but i want to learn about the solor system and how it got the names i was so excited to hear that in 7th grade you get to learn about space i was jumping with joy :-)
