Later this month, the children will launch from their home land of Planet X through space to visit the foreign planet called Earth. They have been given orders from General X to investigate changes on Earth in order to anticipate what x-lings might encounter if they ever moved to Earth. This mission is vital but also very expensive. As a result, General X is not willing to launch the space explorers until she is sure that their scientific observation skills are sharp and ready to go.

In order to help the children prepare, Dan Dan the Science Man came to help the children run a science boot camp. They practiced using their senses to observe various objects and substances. Making detailed observation is harder than it initially seems.
Their discussions about their observations have also helped the class to develop the beginning of a packing list for the trip.
We will need a camera, paper, notebooks, pencils and colored pencils in order to make accurate observations.
