Jet Propulsion Laboratory: Teach
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) at the California Institute of Technology has launched a fully revamped website with larger visuals and mobile-friendly designs. Educators will find the new Teach section especially helpful. Here STEM teachers will find dozens of Activities for a range of subjects, grades, and topics, such as Astronomy, Energy, Measurement. In addition, the Resources tab offers a variety of JPL-related resources, such as posters, printouts, downloads, and classroom materials. For STEM teachers looking to bring space-related lesson plans to life, the JPL site has much to offer.
