Moon Rocks


During science class we were able to observe rocks from the moon. The moon rocks were very small, and they came in a disc. Six samples of moon rocks were included. We looked at the moon rocks under a microscope. I expected that the moon rocks would be mainly white, but I was incorrect. There was only one type of white rock included, it was called anorthosite. Most of the rocks were black, but there was one rock with an orange tinge.

When we had learned about the moon rocks we made a video call with a class in California. We taught the students about some of the basic moon facts. We were able to show the students live images of the moon rocks while we described information.

Our school had a harvest festival. At the harvest festival we had large telescopes that focused on the moon. We also had the moon rocks on display so that many people could observe them.
