Discover Space Probes Return to Room Activity #4 Students watch a video about space probes and discuss the function of space probes. They use a photo gallery to compare and contrast different structures and equipment of probes, and make connections between the different structures and purposes of space probes. Then students use an interactive diagram of the Cassini space probe to imagine what instruments they might include on a probe of their own design. http://education.nationalgeographic.com/education/lesson/extreme-weather-earth-other-planets/?ar_a=1 Image acquired at: http://www.aerospaceguide.net/spacecraft/newhorizons.html Return to Room

Extreme Weather on Our Planet Activity #1 Students use prior knowledge, a photo gallery, and a video to discuss what they already know about extreme weather on Earth and brainstorm a list of weather-related words. Then they organize the information they learned about weather events and conditions present for each type of weather event, and compare and contrast weather events and conditions.
