Earth's Place in the Universe
Mesmerize students with amazing properties of celestial bodies through hands-on inquiry!
Do your students question space, planets, and beyond? This kit equips them to find the answers through solar system lessons and hands-on investigations. They'll apply critical thinking to discover how seasons work, investigate compound orbits, study the Big Bang Theory, and more using the results of fun experiments. They'll create a model of the night sky, use it to demonstrate an eclipse, simulate an asteroid's impact, and even plan for their very own mission into space. Includes a 40-page color manual to guide students through experiments. Materials accommodate a full class (approximately 24 students) working in small groups. See full contents list below. Recommended for Middle School.
