This site claims they know how! Promises a great time exploring space, with puzzles, sky maps, and postcards along the way. Explore the planets first. Each planet comes equipped with a kid-tested lesson, and questions answered such as What is it made of? What's it like down there? Elementary through middle school.</div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://amazing-space.stsci.edu/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://amazing-space.stsci.edu/"><U><B><U>Amazing space:</U></B></U></A></div> <div> Many learning and fun activities here. Try SolarTrading Cards, where you answer the question right, and you'll receive a card to collect. Or take an Astronaut Challenge Mission to service the Hubble Space Telescope. Managed that one and still want more? Then try Galaxies Galore and Galaxy Games. Comes with teaching tips for the various activities, including lessons plans, relations to National Standards, and resources. Both kids and teachers will give this site a thumbs up.</div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://planetary.org/learn/nanoexp.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://planetary.org/learn/nanoexp.html"><U><B><U>2001 Mars Odyssey Student Challenge Contest:</U></B></U></A></div> <div> A wonderful contest called A 2001 MarsOdyssey: The Student Nano-Experiment Challenge.Competitors will design and submit a prototype for a student-designed experiment to go on the 2001 Mars expedition.
