1st - 8th Grade
Academic Year Classes
Grade 1 - Star Scouts
Students explore the impact of microgravity and air pressure on human space travel.
Grade 2 - Comet Busters
Students investigate the composition of asteroids, comments and meteors, and their effect on the environmental essentials for human survival in space.
Grade 3 - Space Travelers
Students explore eating and working in space as they enlist in astronaut training and construct a model for an International Space Station.
Grade 4 - Junior Astronauts
Students explore the effects of space travel on the human body and design a machine that will help astronauts perform a specific task in space.
Grade 5 - Moon Walkers
Students explore the sizes, gravity factors and other physical characteristics of the planets as they construct a simulated solar system different from our own.
Grade 6 - Mars Explorers
Students explore the living conditions and topographic features of Mars as they operate a remote control vehicle on a simulated Martian surface.
Grade 7 - Young Aviators
Students explore the concept of flight as they design and launch a hot air balloon, study weather patterns, construct a map with legends and scales for navigation, and practice radio aircraft communication.
Grade 8 - Pilots
Students explore the control surfaces of conventional aircraft, study local weather conditions using sensors, use time zone and topographic maps to determine safe arrival times and altitudes, and calculate airspeed as effected by headwinds and tailwinds as they conduct a cross-country flight in virtual reality.
