The Astronomical Society of the Pacific is happy to announce the  

return of the Universe in the Classroom, its quarterly newsletter for  

teachers and other educators who want to help children of all ages  

learn more about the wonders of the universe through astronomy. Each  

issue contains information on a topic of current astronomical  

interest, along with hands-on classroom activities to make the topic  

come alive for students and a list of resources for exploring the  

topic deeper.

 

The Fall 2006 issue, Mercury: Its Time Has Come, is now available.  

Looking toward the Mercury transit on November 8, this issue explores  

the tiny planet closest to the Sun and includes two classroom  

activities that will get your students up and moving while learning  

about the meaning of the transit, as well as tips for observing the  

transit from your school.
