Students will be able to explain how space technology and exploration improve the quality of life.

TEKS:  28B

I WILL BE OUT TODAY.  ALL OF YOUR INSTRUCTIONS ARE BELOW - PLEASE READ.  PLEASE TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS, WE DON'T HAVE DAYS TO WASTE.  THE SPACE RACE AND NASA ARE ALWAYS COVERED ON THE STAAR TEST.

Activities:
1.  Copy my space race graphic onto your journal page 134 - CLICK ON IT TO MAKE IT BIGGER.  You will need to skip a couple of pages.

2.  On your phone watch 4 minute film clip about NASA technology.
3.  NASA HOME AND CITY assignment.  Look at the chart.  I want you to explore the NASA Home and City site - click EXPLORE.  Go to all of the places (rooms and buildings) listed on the chart.  For each room or building find 3 examples of NASA technology.  Find the technology by moving around the room or building and looking for the blue dots.  You will most likely have to move your phone - like virtual reality.   List that technology in the corresponding box.  DUE TODAY.
