Telescopes and Constellations




Our class finished our unit of study about Space by making telescopes. We covered a Pringles can and then glued pictures of constellations to a blue piece of paper. We used straight pins to punch holes wherever we saw stars. Then we cut out the circles and placed them in the lids of our Pringles can. Our teacher already punched a hole in the bottom of the can so we could look through it. We saw the formations of the constellations Orion, Pegasus, Cassiopeia, Leo, Gemini, and the Big Dipper. Fun times!
