HejKatt Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Great find! And free too.. many of NASA's educational materials aren't. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest One_Perspective Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 That is too cool. Thanks. My space-loving dd is going to freak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumto2 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Thank you! I hadn't found those. There are also some TOPS units on a NASA site for free. Naturally I already own them but thought I would let people know. I think one is Far Out Math. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairProspects Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 So awesome!! This is perfect to show ds why he needs to keep at the math. He just doesn't always get the real world physics application and is not so motivated by math alone. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 There are also some TOPS units on a NASA site for free. Naturally I already own them but thought I would let people know. I think one is Far Out Math. Added the links to the original post :) So awesome!! This is perfect to show ds why he needs to keep at the math. He just doesn't always get the real world physics application and is not so motivated by math alone. ;) The NASA AMES guys told my boys that they need to be solid in their math :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadia Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 I love this. I don't have kiddos ready to tackle it, but I'm loving it all the same. Dovrar posted about space math in K-8 forum so I remembered my old thread. Yours kids are old enough now for this Grades 3-5 https://spacemath.gsfc.nasa.gov/grade35.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
