Rosetta in the Primary Classroom

Quality AssuredCollectionCategory:SciencePublisher:ESERO-UK

The lessons are designed to help children from ages 4 - 11 learn more about our Solar System and beyond, generate enthusiasm for science and perhaps give them a taste of the excitement a career in Space using STEM subjects could bring.
