(Gr. 3-8)
I am expanding the lessons that were given with
NOVA's "MARS Dead or Alive"
program
to include having students write a newspaper as though it were from
the planet Mars. Student articles will include information students
know about Mars as well as some of the new information that is
coming back to Earth now. Some students could also include comic
strips in their newspaper.
The newspaper will be called FACES (Fun And Cool Educational Stuff)
from Space. Getting my students more involved in NASA's space
program will allow them to take stock in what they are learning and
doing. Plus, they will be able to spread the news to more people
through their own newspaper.
Editor's Note: To read an extended description of this idea,
