Hi we are Science Teachers dedicated
to the advancement of our students here at the Rennaissance School.
We are fascinated with the Solar System, Astronauts, and Mother Earth.
This month we are studying Astronauts.
Astronauts
Tell me, where have you been,
Astronaut, astronaut?
Tell me where have you been,
In your rocket?
I have landed
And I may return there soon
With a space station
That will help me dock it!
Tell me, what did you do,
Astronaut, astronaut?
Tell me, what did you do,
In your rocket?
I took pictures of the stars
And the craters found on Mars,
And I brought home some moon rocks
In my pocket!
