It’s World Space Week!
Space is one of the most fascinating frontiers of science to explore. Stars, planets, nebulae… It’s an endless possibility for scientific excitement.
To celebrate World Space Week, try one of the K-12 teacher guides from worldspaceweek.org. My favorite activity is Eggnaut, in which a student builds a reentry vehicle to protect a raw egg from breaking when dropped. The guide suggests ways to adapt the activity to all grade levels.
While you’re celebrating World Space Week, don’t forget the astronaut ice cream!
