3...2...1... BLAST OFF!

Emily's teacher enjoys building rockets each year with his class. Even though he is the Social Studies teacher and not the Science teacher for the 5th grade, his class gets extra science and math as they learn about rockets. Last Saturday we got up bright and early to drive to a big field in Makati and shoot off some great rockets the kids had built. One rocket had a camera in the nose. We haven't seen that picture yet, but the kids can hardly wait for it to be developed. We drew a crowd of Filipino workers at the nearby construction site and the street cleaning crew. It was a BLAST!


We have lift off!
