Galileo: A Homeschool Astronomy Project
For our astronomy unit we made these interactive books. We read the book "Along came Galileo" by Jeanne Bendick. We recreated the demonstrations Galileo made in the 1600's: dropping two objects of different weights and timing the swings of a pendulum.
We made the books interactive with movable models. The kids love these books!
The project took about two weeks from start to finish. We used products available from
http://www.dickblick.com
Supplies include: Lokta paper, distress ink, watercolor paper, spray adhesive, long reach stapler (from http://www.demco.com), scissors, and silhouette cameo (http://silhouetteamerica.com).
Have fun!
