Fourth Grade Mission

The students in the fourth grade were asked to respond to the following prompt:

All of your hard work and planning has paid off! You have landed on the planet for your ten day mission.  You have spent two days exploring the surface and collecting interesting samples.  You want to share your experiences with your favorite science teacher from elementary school.  In your spare time, you write a postcard to send back to Earth.  On the front of your postcard, draw a picture that shows the details of the planet's surface and atmospheric features.  On the back, write a note and tell your teacher at least two interesting aspects of your mission. Remember to address the postcard correctly.

The following are examples of their work:
