Download Classroom Activities
Below you will find educational materials which you are free to
download and use in your classroom either as preparation for our
visit to your school, or to continue the lesson after we have gone.
There are also links to various NASA websites that you and your
students might find fascinating.
We have sifted through activities and curriculua
created by NASA and selected what we believe to be the `cream of the
crop.'
Clicking on the appropriate grade level next to the show that
you have requested will take you to the page with the material that
is most relevent. Most of the files are PDF's. If you are unable
to open PDF files free software can be found
here. Feel free to contact us if you have any problems with
the downloads.
