Astronomy Club: Meteors

Ages:  5-10

Registration will open on October 30 2023 8:00 am.

When you see a shooting star and make a wish, did you know you are actually wishing on a piece of burning rock? Using printmaking techniques, we will be creating our own meteor shower. What textures and colors does it have? When does it occur? How does it make the sky look?

Materials Provided: TBD

Accessibility

• We are a 5-minute walk off the Nassau G stop. Our building entry, elevator, and bathroom are all ADA compliant.
• For this workshop we will be in Eco Lab 1, this room is brightly lit from a variety of fixtures and natural lighting.  Temperature varies.
• Being a public space there is often overlapping noise within the building.  This workshop is geared towards kids which might include varying levels of sound depending on excitement or interest of group.  To reduce sensory input feel free to bring your own ear plugs or ask us if you’d like to borrow a sound filtering device.
• Grown-ups are encouraged to stay in the space to provide additional support to their child.  This may include help with motor skills or emotional support.
