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.
Read the current issue, browse the archives and sign up for a
