does not every school take out all the kids to see an eclipse every time?
I could maybe see some American schools being afraid that some dipshit looks at the sun and burns his eyes then parents sue the school
I donโt other areas did but I live in the path of totality for the eclipse that happened in April and the schools were all shut down that day. A lot of it was our of fear that people flooding into the area to watch the eclipse would overwhelm the areas infrastructure. If estimates were to be believed from all the areas in my state I heard were supposed to be getting an influx of eclipse watchers I think there was supposed to be about 14 billion people looking for hotels around me.
Exactly. If you are in the path of the eclipse and dont make it an event for the kids, you failed as a place of education and learning!
Ponder the Orb and the vast information it could hold.
The info should be written inside using advanced mathematical geometry that can be used to manipulate numbers (like in string theory). It would look something like: https://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/circle-theorems.html
We had a partial eclipse where I live and it was a school by school basis on if they took the kids out. They gave excused absences to anybody that wanted to take their kids out of school for it. Thatโs what we did.
My kid played video games for 90% of the time. It was partial, so it lasted hours, and it was cloudy af, so I didnโt blame him.
