Welcome
to NASA's Kids Science News Network™!
NASA's KSNN™ is
a standards-based program that
uses the Web, animation, and video
to introduce science, technology,
engineering, math, and NASA concepts.
NASA's KSNN™ uses animated
characters (grades
K-2) and web and video technology
(grades 3-5) to explain everyday
phenomena of our world, correct
misconceptions, and answer frequently
asked questions. Visit the K–2
portion of NASA's KSNN™
web site for 60-second animations,
activities, and resource links
covering such topics as "magnetism"
and "states of matter."
The grade 3–5 portion of
the NASA KSNN™ web site
features children in 60-second
(video) newsbreaks answering such
questions as why is the sky blue
and what makes popcorn pop. Each
newsbreak includes a follow-up
written explanation, inquiry-based
activities, related print and
electronic resources, and a computer-graded
quiz. NASA's KSNN™ invites
anyone who wants to know how things
work or what makes thing happen
to experience a new adventure
in learning.
