American Educational 300 Transparent Celestial Globe, 12" Diameter

The American Educational 300 transparent 12" celestial globe includes an earth globe, sun globe, and a teacher's guide. The celestial globe maps constellations for students studying astronomy in grades 5-12. It contains a printed 3.3" earth globe and 3/4" yellow sun mounted inside the star globe that both rotate independently and demonstrate the earth's apparent relationship to the stars, planets, and galaxies. Adjustments at the poles for the month and day show the positions of the stars relative to the calendar. The globe is mounted in a full horizon and meridian base for stability and the meridian can be adjusted. A teacher's guide provides 13 activities and seven student worksheets.
