Praise for the Life in the Universe Curriculum

"Teacher Ideas Press is to be congratulated for its fine work in bringing this special and original curriculum into print. Lessons are well thought through, interdisciplinary connections are provided as well as detailed materials lists, recommendations for further studies and in-depth educational background information ... Worlds of creative ideas ... These long-awaited and unique curriculums will have you wishing for September and your students to return posthaste so that your Great Exploration can begin. Highly recommended."

- Space Frontier News


"An interesting, creative approach that can capture the attention of their target audience and help the students learn. "

- Science Books and Films


"The SETI Academy Planet Project provides an exciting, informative, and creative series of activities for elementary students."

- ERIC/CSMEE


"The entire project is designed to last a month and I believe that it would only take that long, not because the missions are so simple, but because the students and teacher are going to be so excited about the missions that nothing else will be done. The variety of the activities and the amount of specific details learned is impressive ... This book should be valuable to teachers interested in additions (or, perhaps, alternatives) to a more traditional middle-school science curricula."

- Appraisal


"The activities provide a fresh, interdisciplinary approach to thinking and allow teachers to move beyond the "normal" thematic topics."
