This 20-page ressource will have your students researching Canadian astronauts and astronomers with a series of projects and activities.

In this ressource, you will find:

• Elaborate success criteria and project description.
• Detailed rubric with 4 levels of success.
• A Web-Quest with simple questions and an answer key.
• Cut-out cards with 16 well-known Canadian astronauts and astronomers (your students might pick from a hat or you might prefer to pass them out).
• Detailed informative cheat-sheets I've created for each of those astronauts and astronomers for you to verify their responses (and to avoid you having to look!)
• A self-evaluative task including reflexive questions and self-grading activities.
• A written comprehension piece with questions and an answer key on the history of Canadians in space including important dates, names, missions and events in Canadian space history.
• Graphic organizers to prompt students to verify their sources of information and to keep track of their information.

This set of activities is great to leave with a substitute teacher as it could realistically take 2-3 days and includes ample supportive pieces to allow for an easy sub plan.

For goodness sakes, don't forget to have fun!

Make reviewing the parts of the skin fun with this engaging hands-on 3D diorama science craft project! Students learn about the skin layers and then decorate a shoe box based on what they learned! Students are responsible for decorating the box and putting a creative scene inside that represents the parts of human skin. Students love it when they get to do projects and make their learning come to life!

Here’s what you’ll get:

• pre-colored pages for a quick cut and prep
• black and white pages for students to color their own background and pieces, cut, and decorate
• rubric for easy grading
• research page for students to record their learning
• planning page for students to map out how they want their diorama to look

What is a diorama?

A diorama is a three-dimensional scene built to illustrate a topic. Dioramas are small scenes created with layers of materials. A diorama can be made out of a shoe box or similar box that includes a variety of information and pictures about a topic.

Students create a diorama by cutting, coloring, painting, and gluing pieces inside the box to create a model that shows a situation, such as a historical event or animals in their natural environment. Students can be encouraged to add real features such as grass, sand, sticks, etc.

The dioramas do not come with specific assembly instructions. Students should learn about the parts of the skin first, and use the pieces within this resource to creatively build their own unique diorama! This is a fun way for students to learn and get hands-on with the lesson/topic.

Prep is quick and easy... print the pieces on cardstock for durability and let your students explore the water as an enrichment activity to your lesson plan.
