Chabot Space and Science Center invites YOU to join the ASTRO Network*

(*Awesome Science Teachers Reflecting On practice)

This new learning group is a place for new and veteran teachers to exchange ideas, have critical conversations, and create a network with other teachers.                         

ASTRO Network (Awesome Science Teachers Reflecting On practice) would like to welcome all teachers to attend our next session:

 The Science and Art of Snow and Crystals

Have you ever wondered why no two snowflakes are alike?   The incredible beauty and wonder of snow crystals is the focus for our second meeting.  We will be sharing a wintry mini-unit that includes hands on investigations and inquiry in growing crystals, as well as learning about the science of snowflakes through art, literature, and mathematics.  You can take these activities back to the classroom right away, or have your first week of January all set to go!

We hope you can join us for a morning of chilly fun!

Have a favorite project or science activity for this time of year? Bring in examples and/or materials. There will be ample time to share.

In addition to ideas and activities, please bring any burning questions, conundrums, student work samples, notebooks, etc. that you would like to ‘bring to the discussion table.’  We’ll reflect together and see what new perspectives emerge.

Here are the specifics:

Please RSVP so we can get an idea how many of you will be attending. You may respond to Stan Fukunaga at: sfukunaga@chabotspace.org

We will need the following information: your name, school/city, grade level and/or subject taught, and e-mail address.
