Teaching Methods:
Discussion based. Drawing heavily on students
prior knowledge and peer-to-peer
communication.
Students will also be asked to conduct individual
and group investigations into assigned topics (e.g.
a particular planet or moon, NASA missionetc.)
A portion of the lessons will be lecture based
where the teacher will deliver the information
(the basics needed for students to be able to work
independently later on) from slides.
Relevant footage from space telescopes will be
viewed. Along with videos of real Scientists
talking about it.
