Lakeside Elementary Mission Statement: "Lakeside Elementary Lions strive daily to create a community of excellence by demonstrating the characteristics of perseverance, respect, innovation, and determination in a learning environment where we understand that ALL students have the ability to make a positive difference in the world."

Our goal is to involve all students at Lakeside Elementary, their families, and neighbors, to make them aware of the science that surrounds them, and to create a lifelong interest in science and learning by having an interaction with an active project and communicate with astronauts working in space.

Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:

1. What made you want to be an astronaut?

2. How do Astronauts draw in Space?

3. How did it feel to be part of the 1st all women spacewalk?

4. How do you drive a spaceship?

5. If something goes wrong, do you have an emergency plan? i.e. if a

meteor hits you, the engine breaks

6. How and what do you eat in space?

7. What has been your most dangerous situation in space?

8. What do you do for fun in the space station when you are not

working?

9. What experiments are you working on in space right now?

10. Can plants grow in space?

About ARISS

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States, sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more information, see www.ariss.org.
