     Our friends at InfiniD Learning released impressive new missions this school year. My Young Astronauts and Voyagers at Renaissance Academy's The Space Place enjoyed a couple new missions which involved "The Crooked Snakes".  One lesson was on gravity and another, for our 3rd grade Young Astronauts, had them using times tables to solve riddles.  The missions were a hit.  One of my squadrons took 10th place in the national rankings.        This is a reel showcasing some of InfiniD's animations this year.  If your local school isn't using IniniD Learning in the classrooms contact me and I'll help you get the ball rolling.  InfiniD Learning makes learning fun using experiential education.  ​SpaceCampUtah@gmail.com      And that's not all,  here is another piece of fantastic news from InfiniD Learning from their Facebook page.      Meet the InfiniD Learning team.  five of them, ...
