My Project
We are all curious about space travel and the ability to reach near planets. A round way trip to Mars will leave our astronauts traveling in space for two years. How do you live in space for long time frames? The Astronaut Ice Cream will demonstrate and show how eating in space is vastly different then eating on Earth. Students will get to taste the many types of freeze-dried ice cream. I have been showing my class video clips of life on the International Space Station.
We will set up a classroom "space mission" simulation.
Students can role-play as astronauts preparing for a mission to the Moon or Mars. One of their tasks will be to select the best food options to bring, including other freeze-dried foods. Showcasing that freeze-dried food does not require refrigeration making it lightweight, perfect for space missions.
The digital wall clock is great for a classroom because it provides easy-to-read time for all students, helping them stay on track. It helps with time management. Additionally, it can reduce distractions by minimizing the need for students to check their personal devices for the time.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
