Star Lab - Reviews

Conversation with Junior High teacher; (140 kids)

Your boys are doing a super job...the kids are all coming back really excited. The kids were so
wound up...that I think the other science teacher next to me wants to do it now… the kids (convinced
her). Thank you...kids are excited...boys are all pumped about going into it tomorrow.

The Star Lab went really well on Friday! I want to thank you for organizing and offering your students
as a resource. They did a great job!  Thanks again

I want to thank you and your students for the marvelous way you ran the Skylab. Since I took the
training, I have wanted to use it as an instructional tool. However, keeping the boys and girls separate,
and running the classroom at the same time seemed too large of a challenge. You and your students
made it safe for kids and educational. I thank you and your students for allowing my students this
opportunity.  Thank you

1) Did the 6 teachers @ Elba think it was worth the trip?

2) Was it worthwhile for the kids?

3) Is it something that you would do again next year?

Yes, Yes and YES!

It was great. Thank you for all your help. Your teens were wonderful!!!!!

Letter from teacher at St. Paul's; (180 kids)

Dear "student's name"

Thank you for the excellent presentation in the Star Lab. You were wonderful with the fourth graders.
I thought that you might have been a student teacher! You had a wealth of knowledge to share and did
it in a way that was kid-friendly. The students really enjoyed it.

Sincerely,

St. Paul Lutheran Teacher

P.S. You "student" should consider becoming a teacher. 

Letter from St. Paul's;

To the Lapeer West Astronomy Students, 

We would like to let you know how much the students enjoyed your Star Lab presentations. You were
very knowledgeable in all areas and fielded questions … in a very nice manner. Your confidence and
interest in the subject matter showed through in all of your many presentations. Thank you so much
for taking time from your busy day to come to St. Paul.

Sincerely,

St. Paul Lutheran Dayschool Staff

Your three kids did a wonderful job!!! We really want to do it again next year. We are having our kids
make thank you cards … for each of the three kids.

Overall I thought things went pretty well. All the classrooms in the building were able to attend the
star lab. This has never happened since I've been here. I think the 6th graders needed some extra
prepping with the star charts and I need to make sure we have the small flashlights when using them
in the star lab. I am more amiliar with the star charts now, so I can better prepare the students next
year. I will definitely do this again next year. We had the most participation ever, and it wasn't that
much work. The high school students did a great job explaining the different globes. In the past I
always ran everything dealing with the lab so having extra help is great.
