Steven's entry........


Meteorites are educational because they allow the teacher to capture the =

imagination of the student. A physicist can slide a block of wood down =
a=20
ramp, a chemist can make red water turn blue and back again, a=20
mathematician can give you long formulas and explain the world with much =

rigor, but a teacher with a meteorite can do what no other can. A =
teacher=20
with a meteorite can put in a student's hand: a piece of the oldest=20
material known, a witness to the creation of the Earth, a rock that has=20
fallen from heaven, a piece of an ancient star that exploded, a piece of =

Mars or a piece of the Moon. Meteorites are educational because they =
can=20
quiet a room full of rowdy fourth and fifth grade students and turn Jr.=20
high school teenagers from apathetic and angst filled inmates into=20
attentive and inquisitive students. I say to other educators - "take =
your=20
block, your acid and your equations and do what you will. I will send =
you=20
students eager to learn each of your fields with one stone from the sky"


This is why I have chosen to study meteorites :)
