OBSERVING THE SKY: TOOLS AND STRATEGIES FOR THE ACTIVE LEARNING OF ASTRONOMY IN PRIMARY SCHOOL [PDF]
We present the design and implementation of a teaching-learning sequence (TLS) on astronomy in a fifth-grade classroom. The specific topics were the local horizon and the path of the Sun in the sky. A key element of the TLS was the direct contact with the sky, realized through repeated observations of the local horizon and of the position of the Sun ...
