Unit Summary: For ages, people all over the world searched for patterns in the heavens and related them to daily life and beliefs. Celestial study guided early travelers, and sightings of celestial objects helped determine when to plant and harvest food. In this study, students choose a celestial body or constellation and study how it has been explained and interpreted across cultures and time. Students present their learning using technology-enhanced displays and dramatic interpretations during a culminating star party.
