About this item:
Each activity explores an element of the universe, from our planet Earth to deep in the solar system. First, blast off with a space race using SolarStudy, where students run between poly spot planets to get a sense for the scale of the solar system. Next, explore Earth's closest neighbor, the moon, in hands-on activities from the Earth’s Place in the Universe set. Then, come back home with the Earth Layers Set, exploring the inner workings of our planet. Explore natural disasters using the Volcanic Eruptions Kit and ShakeStudy Seismometers. Finally, end your space journey by constructing your own model of the solar system with CreateKit Team Bins.
