NASA Engineer Visits Eastwood Classes

Eastwood Christian School third-grader Josie Powe was proud to introduce her grandfather, who is a NASA engineer in Huntsville, to her classmates. Matthew McGrath is an electromagnetic effects subject matter expert and shared his knowledge and work at NASA with the students during their study on our solar system. Through a scientific and biblical perspective, students learned many interesting facts about our amazing space and further explorations. Students learned, among many other interesting facts, that it takes 8 to 10 minutes to leave the Earth’s surface and enter orbit. They also learned it takes three days from the Earth’s orbit to get to the Earth’s moon. McGrath is currently working on a NASA robotic prototype lander called the Mighty Eagle that will be used for future planetary landers. Students from Mrs. Owen’s and Mrs. Lee’s classes are shown with McGrath.

Students Assists Students at SUA

Leadership skills are a part of the curriculum that is taught in the classroom at Success Unlimited Academy. Combined with academics, being able to help others is a life lesson. Not only does it teach the student responsibility, but it also builds selfconfidence. At the SUA Elementary Campus, located on Harrison Road, the upper elementary students often partner with the lower elementary students as tutors. Third-grader Caroline Moody enjoys helping first-grader Eli Granata with his language skills. “When a student is given an opportunity to tutor at SUA it is a win-win situation,” says Assistant Principal and teacher Mrs. Morgan. “Students are encouraged at our school to always make time for others. Service plays an important role of our curriculum, no matter how great or small.” Moody and Granata have formed a friendship that not only provides encouragement to Granata, but also builds a love for learning. “Thanks, Caroline, for helping me with my sentences. You rock!” he exclaimed. Montgomery Parents I May 2013
