Teachers and parents: scroll down to check out the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for this episode!
Anthony and Squeaks find out how you can put telescopes in different places to help you see further away and get better pictures of things in space!
K-2 Next Generation Science Standards
Disciplinary Core Ideas:
ETS1.A : Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems - A situation that people want to change or create can be approached as a problem to be solved through engineering (K-2-ETS1-1).
ETS1.C: Optimizing the Design Solution - Because there is always more than one possible solution to a problem, it is useful to compare and test designs (K-2-E TS 1-3).
Performance Expectations:
K-2-ETS1-1 Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool.
K-2-ETS1-3 Analyze data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of how each performs

From the team behind the YouTube series SciShow comes SciShow Kids!
Join Jessi, Mister Brown, Squeaks the Robot Lab Rat, and all their friends at the Fort as they conduct experiments, research new questions, and talk with experts to learn about the science-filled world around us.
There's always something new to discover with SciShow Kids, no matter what your age!
SciShow Kids is ideal for early-elementary learners, Grades 1-3, and many episodes are structured around the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) curriculum.
