Zenith Space Mission 2007
Welcome
The Shuttle has
has landed safely and our mission was a success. Thank you to all the
parent volunteers who help us throughout the day.
On Tuesday, April 3, 2007 this Grade 6 class will blast off into space! This 12 hour space shuttle simulation is designed to give students an idea of what it might be like to be part of a shuttle crew or the Mission Control Team.
Students applied to join our Space School and then examined our solar system, history of space exploration, living and working in space and the scientific method using critical thinking skills, creativity, co-operative learning and experimental learning.
On April 3, our astronauts will lift-off into space to experience the wonder of space exploration while carrying out many of the functions most astronauts do. They will exercise, conduct experiments, keep journals and much more while Mission Control guides them.
By stimulating students' imaginations, students not only become engaged, empowered and energetic, they developed a quest for knowledge. By following the voyage through our site, you will learn more about our experiences and the wonders of space!
