Tides Lab Using Water Balloons - Hands On Experience That Kids LOVE!
This lab is a really fun way to use discovery and investigation to teach students how gravity and inertia cause tides, along with the moon. The cost is low (a package of water balloons and yarn) and it is a great activity to get kids moving and outside. They work in small groups and go through a series of steps and procedures and record data. This was one of the most fun labs of the year for students and was instrumental is having kids understand why we have high tides on the side of the Earth c

Planisphere Lab Activity: A Star Wheel for Constellation Exploration
Inexpensive and ingenious! Planispheres are a unique tool for learning astronomy: a make-it-yourself star map, adjustable for any time of night in any month of the year. They are designed to show the position of prominent constellations in the night sky. It's a low-tech way for Ss to learn the location (and thus give meaning to key vocabulary terms) of the horizon, zenith, meridian, ecliptic and celestial equator on the celestial sphere. This lab includes two types of planispheres: one for stan
