Space Place for Teachers

NASA.GOV is a remarkable resource for teachers and students.  Spend a little time there and you find a wealth of information about NASA – past, present, and future.  I recently became aware of an area of nasa.gov that has been around in one form of another for about ten years. Space Place is a special project of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory designed for elementary aged students.  It is full of games, fun facts, projects, and animations.  I especially like the feature set for Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts that provides program aids for their space and aeronautics-related advancements. One feature of the site is a bi-monthly newsletter for teachers.  The latest issue is just out and you can find it Here.
