A little about your instructor: I taught 3rd grade for 40 years and 4th grade for one year at the Catholic Schools of Fairbanks. I love teaching Space Science. I got involved in Space Science when I became a Teacher Liaison for the Space Foundation in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 2008. To share my enthusiasm for space, I started a Space Science Club that runs from January to April for 3rd-6th graders. I had the great opportunity to go to Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama, twice as an educator. I have been to several Space Conferences, including at Space Center Houston, Colorado Springs, and Kennedy Space Center in Florida. I love sharing my experiences with students and other teachers.
