| Astronomy and More — A Comprehensive User’s Guide for the STARLAB and Other Planetaria Astronomy and More is a collection of tried and true curriculum ideas from top STARLAB Portable Planetarium users who have created exciting and interactive activities for kindergarten through grade 12, as well as specific curricula for each STARLAB projection cylinder. These contributors are educators who not only love and believe in STARLAB as an essential educational tool, but have years of proven experience using STARLAB. Many of the activities can be easily applied to the classroom or used in other small, fixed planetaria. |
| Astronomy and More comes in two binders and includes a comprehensive table of contents and tab-divided sections to help you locate the information quickly and easily. Four main sections include STARLAB Planetarium Set-up, Operation and Maintenance; K-6 Activities and Lessons; Grades 7-12 Activities and Lessons; Cylinder Guides. The pages are three-hole punched so that your lessons and worksheets are easily accessible. The binders have colorful, durable covers. |
| “. . . there’s a lot in this book worth having. . . . What sets [it] apart from normal books on myths is the activities sections. Each culture contains a set of activities related to that area. The book itself comes in a loose-leaf format, easy to handle and easy to copy needed pages for activities and enclosed handouts. Because this book was designed for use in the planetarium environment, LTI asked people known in the field for their expertise. Names such as Jeanne Bishop, Alan Gould, Gloria Rall, Doris Forror and Murray Barber were responsible for the varied myths and their follow-up activities. But don’t think you need a portable facility, or a planetarium at all, to get the most from this book. Many of the sections can be easily adapted for classroom use. You don’t teach astronomy? Use it in other disciplines. It will make an ideal addition or supplement to your history, geography, general science, or even art classes.” — Francine Jackson, URI Planetarium and Bryant College reviewer for The Planetarian, December 2000 |
