Living in Working in Space- Lab for 6A and 6C

The following websites are needed to complete your graphic organizers (jot notes are acceptable). Pay attention to the number of chairs at each station. This is the maximum level of participants at a time. You will be responsible for rotating once you have completed an activity, so monitor the countdown and use your time wisely. Any extra time? Work on your PMI (Plus-Minus-Interesting) organizer.

Please remember that the "Living and Working in Space PMI" will be due Thursday.
