For teachers planning to attend this year's ESERO Ireland Space Education Confluence, here is Elizabeth Tasker's view on some of the recent headlines.

A reminder for second level teachers in Ireland - this free event is still available to book! Hope to see you online on Saturday. Space Week

Lovely listening to RTÉ lyric fm yesterday with The Full Score playing Holst's The Planets and hearing that on Friday at National Concert Hall there will be Richard Strauss’s Also Sprach Zarathustra being played live! Great choices for Space Week

Use the free resources from SpaceWeek.ie to run your own event! Space Week

And the ESERO Ireland Space Week Workshops are a go at MTU Blackrock Castle Observatory! Great to have two schools with us and the camera crew from RTÉ. Look for us being featured on RTÉjr today from 4pm! Space Week .

Want to keep Space Week going in Maths Week Ireland?Bring some space-maths to your junior class with Design an Alien. Learners describe an alien to each other, then physically create their alien from craft material and finally sort them in different ways. spaceweek.ie/wp-content/upl…


Explore the unknown with European Space Agency's haunted space station tour! 👻 Journey through the eerie corridors of an abandoned International Space Station, where mysteries abound and spook-tacular surprises await. Will you uncover the truth, or will the ghosts keep their secrets? 👨🚀🚀 #HappyHalloween

Coming across some great ways to incorporate Space Week learning in the classroom. How cute is this idea that was used for the @SFICuriousMinds awards last year! gaelscoilmhiceasmainn.com/imeachtai-scoi…
