Claudia “We need to add photosynthesis!” The children drew and added carbon dioxide and oxygen gases. Bill wrote chlorophyll.
Harry S. “Photosynthesis . . . you need water and light to go into the leaves to make food for the plants. It changes carbon dioxide into oxygen.”

Charlie “We can use the lights in the art room for the lanterns."
Harry “We could put it on a piece of wire.”
We walked to the art room and asked Claire for two battery powered candles.

The children wrapped wire around the lights to hang behind and illuminate the Sun and the Moon.
