Then you're ready for this year's Tennessee Space Week Contest. This year's competition should be the most exciting yet as teachers will participate as well as students. Teachers compete for one of four teacher scholarships to the weeklong teacher space camp offered this summer.
Students compete in locally developed activities with the opportunity to win state-level prizes.
Each local TEA affiliate sets up its own age-appropriate local contests for elementary, middle, and high schools in your school system. Local affiliate planning committees may even wish to allow teachers at all grade levels the flexibility to decide what they want students in their classes to do. It's your local decision. That goal can be met at any grade level and within any curriculum. Additional copies are available from local presidents or TSW coordinators.
