Last but not least, we thought of add a substantial bibliography of illustrated albums and other books, edited by Schermi e Lavagne/ Dipartimento educativo della Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna, Associazione culturale Hamelin, and Sara Ricciardi of the Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica. These books accompanied our laboratories and were a source of inspiration for many workshops and lessons. The cat and the Moon, William B. Yeats (poem) Nuno, salva la Luna, Marino Neri Pop-up Moon, Olivier Charbonnel, Annabelle Buxton Papa sur la Lune, Adrien Albert Moon, Britta Teckentrup L’heure de laLEGGI TUTTO

Since many Italian schools are equipping themselves with 3D printers and the MIUR has financed these activities with dedicated calls, we thought it would be interesting to try to design and build a portable lunatario through digital fabrication. A lunatario is a large box, in our octagonal design, with eight holes to spy inside and a small moon hanging in the center. The boys observe this canned moon lit by a torch in one of the holes. The description of the possible explorations with the lunatic are described in thisLEGGI TUTTO

A further criterion of choice has been the absence ofLEGGI TUTTO

Filled with curiosity, after a month of observing the sky the students want to dare to make sense of the changing aspect of the Moon. Students have the opportunity to explore an INAF exhibition designed for this purpose, where they can find time to observe and think about possible explanations and connections with what they have observed from life. This object – designed by Fabrizio Villa of the National Institute of Astrophysics and made for the occasion – is an octagonal wooden box containing a reproduction of the Moon madeLEGGI TUTTO
