Discussing Planets With Threemilehouse School

I had a very enjoyable day with a number of the classes in St. Mary’s National School in Threemilehouse Co. Monaghan discussing all aspects of the Solar System. And some of the students were very kind to give me feedback:

One of many things that we like about the space talk was how enthusiast Dr O Driscoll was. Right from the start he caught people’s attention. When he was making the talk, it felt like you were in space. Some of the stuff he brought was very cool. I loved the rotating planets, binoculars & the telescope. One thing that caught my eye was when someone would answer a question even if they got it wrong, he wouldn’t put them down. He would help the person change it. I was going to write some cons about the talk but when I thought back I couldn’t think of any. Thank you – Dáire Ward

Today I’ll leave an honest review about the space presentation. I liked the way when someone asked a question he would say you could be right. The way he demonstrated the distance between the earth and the moon. He expressed passion when answering questions & explaining. He put some effort on the rocket on google earth. His homemade versions of the planets were well made while not being painted it gave you a good representation. Overall, I think Dr O Driscoll put a sheer amount of effort in. Nathan Mc Entee
