OVERVIEW:
This resource and lessons include everything related to aeronautical science and space exploration. Teachers and students will find it exciting and very useful. The ten lessons include the study of the International Space Station (ISS). Specific aspects of sleeping in space, eating in space, the effect of gravity (bone density weakens/eye pressure drops, etc.) and more are discussed. The work of Herman Potocnik and Wernher Von Braun (space research pioneers) are touched on. Elon Musk, from SpaceX, is also studied. Ideas for living on Mars and the Moon are explored. Space wheel gravitation, concepts of Potocnik & Von Braun, are explained. A STEM project — design and build water-propelled rockets — is included. MINECRAFT EDUCATION ACTIVITIES: Fun activities like modelling the ISS & designing a spacecraft — are some of the challenges in the lessons. The ten fun lessons cover a large area of space study and scientific concepts and conclude with a STEM competition (rocket building). As a teacher, I have delivered these lessons to secondary school students recently, and they loved it! Note some areas in the lessons have been repeated – repetition is good to improve knowledge retention.
