Toys in Space and Mass vs. Weight
When: Saturday, Oct. 24, 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Where: NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Von Karman Auditorium, Pasadena, California
Target Audience: Educators for grades 2-8 (all educators are welcome)
Overview: Gravity, mass and weight are difficult concepts for most students. In this workshop we will be presenting two programs from NASA that utilize experiments performed by students on Earth and then by astronauts on the International Space Station in microgravity. Take back hands-on activities for students that combine math, science and social studies. These lessons address many Next Generation Science and Common Core standards.
