Welcome to RainbowResource.com — Learning Tools for Homes and Schools Serving Home Educators Since 1989

This book provides over 25 fantastic activities and projects to bring an interactive, hands-on learning experience to the study of the solar system. Following the step-by-step instructions, students will complete detailed, yet fun, activities like making their own Galilean telescope or solar wind model. The book is filled with interesting facts about the planets, the sun, meteors, comets, tools of astronomy, and much more. The text does an excellent job of providing enough background information for students to understand and appreciate the corresponding projects, but not so much as to overwhelm students with technical information. This is a great resource for those kinesthetic learners out there. 122 pg - Enh
