Extractions: Scholarship Activities ... Maps/Parking Local Astronomy Activities Local Astronomy Activities UM Detroit Observatory Telescope The newly restored University of Michigan Detroit Observatory opened in September 1999 as a center for 19th century science, technology, and culture. The Observatory is open to the public for open houses and a monthly lecture series . The historic 1857 refracting telescope will be used largely for instruction. At present, however, the Observatory's dome is not rotating properly, which renders the telescope unusable. Numerous attempts to repair the dome have as yet been unsuccessful.

Lesson Plans
astronomy, electrostatics, lasers, radioactivity
http://www.unt.edu/scope/Lesson Plans/activities.htm

Extractions: Resource Activities Astronomy Sunspots Spotted I n this activity students will study sunspots and their motion. From data gathered, they will determine the significance of the sunspot data. The data will be used to calculate the rotational period of the sun. The students will then draw conclusions as to the sunspot's impact on the world. This activity will also include a historical study of astronomy. Electrostatics A Hair Raising Experience This activity is designed to help students understand the concept of charged particles and neutral materials. Students will work with conductors and insulators to produce, detect, and transfer charges. Electrostatics 2 A Positively NEGATIVE Experience Students will work in cooperative learning groups to discover how Gauss's Law applies to conductors and dielectric materials. Geology Geology 1 Topsy-turvy Maps Students will use the data analyzer and motion detector to collect data and measure distances. The graphing calculator will be used to show the profile of the simulated land features. They will create topographic maps drawn to scale of a given setup and relate the concepts to the creation of historical ocean maps. Geology 2 Dirty Investigation Given a set of minerals found with the skeleton of an ancient traveler, students will identify the minerals, plot their location on a map, and determine the trail the man walked. Finally the students will right a story about the adventures they think the man might have had. Suitable for 4th and 5th grade students.
