Look up! What do you see? The sun, moon, stars, other planets?
You're checking out the solar system! The Solar System: Out of This
World with Science Activities for Kids invites middle school kids
on a journey of a lifetime to explore the comets, meteors,
asteroids, sun, planets, and moons that make up the solar system.
Kids learn about the history of space exploration and discovery,
along with the tools of astronomy that have made it possible to
study celestial objects even outside our own solar system. While
space seems far away, and really, it is, The Solar System brings it
closer to the classroom with fun facts and engaging language kids
will find exciting! Space has been fascinating to humans since we
first looked up, and that sense of wonder is still very much a part
of a young astronomer's experience. As the tools of space
exploration become more and more sophisticated, the farther reaches
of outer space become accessible to everyone back on Earth. Photos
from the rovers on Mars, images of Pluto from New Horizons
spacecraft, communications from Comet 67P via the Philae comet
probe all bring the solar system up close and personal for anyone
with an internet connection. The Solar System includes hands-on
STEM activities and critical thinking exercises related to
astronomy and space exploration. Fun facts, links to online primary
sources and other supplemental material, and essential questions
encourage readers to take a deep dive toward the outer limits of
our home! Nomad Press books integrate content with participation.
Common Core State Standards, the Next Generation Science Standards,
and STEM Education all place project-based learning as key building
blocks in education. Combining content with inquiry-based projects
stimulates learning and makes it active and alive. Nomad's unique
approach simultaneously grounds kids in factual knowledge while
allowing them the space to be curious, creative, and critical
thinkers.
