[amsat-bb] Re: In School ARSSat Demos / lessons

Hi Clint...

As the husband of a Middle School Math/Science teacher, I could use 
links to Lesson Plans built around any of the receivable satellites that 
would help garner interest in these kids during their "formative" years.

With all the emphasis on testing and measurable results in the 
classroom, teachers have scant time to develop interesting science 
projects that are outside the state and federal "frameworks" and won't 
be tested for at the end of the year.

There must be a treasure trove of pre-existing lesson plans and 
incorporation ideas which she could tap into bringing Amateur Satellites 
or satellites in general into the classroom.
