Age that crater!

In Age that Crater! students will learn about the existence of craters on the Moon and on other planetary bodies and how they occur. They can also learn how to approximately age these craters, comparing them to other craters. This activity gives young students an introduction to phenomena occurring in the Solar System and on our own Earth. This activity is a student-driven inquiry process employing the Predict, Explain, Observe, Explain (PEOE) model, encouraging students to engage their education through self-drive inquiry and investigation. This activity is aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for elementary and middle school students.
