What educators are saying

Great resource that allowed students to graph and make sense of their graph and to explain their understanding in written expression.
I really appreciate the extra graphing practice for middle school students. I do wish this was provided as an editable document so that I can make some slight changes. Other than that, the activity and follow up questions are great.

Description

Help students learn the positive correlation between a galaxy's distance and its speed. Astronomer Edwin Hubble was able to determine that most galaxies in the universe are moving away from the Earth, and that the galaxies that are farther away are also the fastest moving galaxies.
