Enjoy this engaging curriculum with our easy-to-use online tools. Explore the night sky while inspiring creativity and storytelling. Developed by Eurekus and McREL International for NASA's Discovery & New Frontiers Programs, Cosmic Constellations is a robust curriculum that fosters transdisciplinary learning. Students explore sky charts and astronomical features while investigating patterns in the sky. They discover and celebrate cultural sky lore and star myths and design their own constellations and stories. Learning is activated through a series of fun activities and mixed-media art-making using real sky charts. And, there are many opportunities to galvanize literacy, research and geometry integrations.
