Get ready to move as we explore the relationship between Earth, Moon and Sun in this highly interactive and kinesthetic class. Why does the Moon’s shape seem to change? Why do we have day and night? What causes eclipses? We’ll answer these questions and more as we “dance the night away.”
Grade Level Recommendations: Grades 3 and 4
What does our Solar System really look like? How do we know? In this hands-on adventure, students become NASA engineers as they design, build, and test interplanetary landers that are needed to explore rocky worlds like Mars.
