Through a series of simple body movements, learners gain insight into the relationship between time and astronomical motions of Earth (rotation about its axis, and orbit around the Sun), and also abou

In this interdisciplinary activity, learners create a Space Weather Action Center (SWAC) to monitor solar storms and develop real SWAC news reports.

In this space science activity, learners work together to create a human-powered orrery to model the movements of the four inner planets.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

This lesson plan provides learners with two activities to explore the connections between events in their lives and the seasons of the year.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

Using information from the My Place in Space lithograph, learners write and/or draw a postcard to friends and family as if they had gone beyond the interstellar boundary of our Solar System, into the

This kinesthetic science demonstration introduces learners to four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.

In this activity, learners make a flip book that shows the progression of two solar events on reversible sides of the flip book.
