Calling All Budding Astronauts: You’ll Need Math Skills | Math Aerospace Academy - gvwire.com
Fresno State is hosting its first Math Aerospace Academy
for students in grades one through six who are excited at the prospect
of working on things like NASA engineering design challenges and robot
coding by Nancy Price, multimedia journalist for GV Wire.
The program spans six Saturdays, starting Jan. 11 at 8:30 a.m. in the Education Building.
The curriculum will include age- and grade-appropriate hands-on
activities based on NASA themes that support number sense, geometry,
engineering, sequencing, money math, and more.
Fresno State is one of 13 institutions in the U.S. that are hosting
Aerospace Academies funded by NASA. The program’s goal is to encourage
interest and involvement of K-12 students in science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
