I'm a general education teacher in a district Science resource position that's unique in teaching Space Science and STEM curriculum through NASA simulations. My team services 6th-8th students from public and private schools throughout the state of Hawaii. Each year we train new teachers in a 2-3 day workshop with our space mission curriculum so they can take it back to their classrooms and prepare their students on the Math, Reading and Communications skills needed for each mission. Our 3 classrooms are transformed to replicate NASA's Mission Control Center, Spacecraft and a briefing room. Students of all levels work together to complete a mission: Landing on the Moon, Rendezvous with Halley's Comet, and soon Explore Mars. Students work at their own stations, both in the spacecraft and mission control, gathering data in hands-on experiments, analyzing data in mission control and communicating to each other.
