Astronomy Common Core RST.6-8.10 simulations

Mass, Gravity, and Spacetime through Gravity Wells!

Created by

This collaborative, hands-on station rotation is loaded with resources that will engage students in deep analysis - and deep space! Although this is a materials-heavy project, you’ll hear your students speaking like Astrophysicists by the end of class. This activity has students conduct hands-on research on the relationships between an object’s mass and volume, an object’s mass and its gravitational pull, an object’s gravitational pull and spacetime. There are built-in depth and complexity quest
