Description
Students in Mrs. Biebighauser and Ms. Kaylor's eighth
grade classes focus on earth and space science. The
Cosmosphere is an internationally known space museum
that can give our students opportunities to learn that are
not possible in the school classroom.
Every Cosmosphere Educational program is designed to
meet Next Generation Science Standards. These are
standards-aligned, career-focused packages combined
with hands-on experience. The trip will include a visit to
the Hall of Space Museum (self-guided tour guide
available), one show in the Justice Planetarium and one
show in Dr. Goddard's Lab. It will supplement our normal
classroom astronomy lessons with activities that create a
deeper understanding of the solar system.
