Hubble Space Telescope, with its 2.5-meter mirror lens, have delighted astronomers and the public for years.
It replaces the curved surface of a conventional lens with many concentric grooves that are etched into a thin sheet of glass, silica, or plastic to bend and focus light.
Early in 2002, the team, guided by computer simulations, assembled a two-thirds scale model of a 5-meter lens using unpolished and unetched plastic panels and successfully demonstrated the origami-like folding pattern.
In high Earth orbit, the Livermore-conceived Eyeglass diffractive telescope would consist of two spacecraft: a 25-meter-aperture Magnifying Glass and a 1-meter-aperture Eyepiece.
Under this arrangement, the Magnifying Glass vehicle holds the large-aperture diffractive lens and, with the aid of a gyrowheel, swivels the lens to point toward desired targets.

Goal: Students will create their own definition of peace and express the importance of being a peacekeeper.
You will probably want to practice crane-making ahead of time so that you can help interpret the instructions for your class.
You may want to choose a couple of ideas to implement in your classroom, the school, or the community.
Sadako believed the Japanese legend that if she made 1000 origami cranes and brought them to the temple as an offering, the gods would answer her prayer to be well again.
Follow the instructions provided to fold your own paper crane.

Studying families from different places helps us to learn and appreciate both the similarities and differences between ourselves and others.
The family --- that special group of adults and children who care for, love, protect, and help each other --- is both explored and celebrated in Families Around the World.
In My Family from Japan, students will meet 11-year-old Keisei and his family who live in Tokyo.
Using a web, brainstorm with your students to determine who they consider to be members of their family.
· Haiku is a Japanese poetic form.Adjustments have to be made to create haiku in English, due to differences between the languages.An English haiku has three lines: line one has five syllables, line two has seven syllables and line three has five syllables.A completed haiku should not exceed seventeen syllables.

This unit is designed to be an introductory unit for geometry.
Through a variety of hands-on activities and the interactive viewing of a video, the students are introduced to polyhedra.
Students will demonstrate the ability to reason logically as they classify and identify geometric solids in the real world.
The crystal systems are defined by the dimensions (length, width, and height) of imaginary axes inside the crystal and the angles at which these axes meet.
To what crystal system does this prism belong?
Sometimes minerals are found divided into seven crystal systems, rather than six.
Students need to visit a minimum of five (5) sites.
Write a paper that relates prisms and pyramids to minerals, crystals, or molecules.

This porcupine paper ornament is made from wrapping tissue paper.
Kathy originally discovered the directions in the December 1984 issue of McCall's Needlework & Crafts "Stars of Christmas."
Later she found directions in a book that called it a "Traditional Polish Star."
Most recently she saw the directions online at familyfun.go.com/crafts/cutpaste/craft/polishstar Also made of wrapping tissue paper, Kathy originally found the directions for this Sonobe ball ornament in the book Origami: 30 Fold-by-Fold Projects by Paulo Mulatinho.
The designer of the star is Mitsunobu Sonobe.
She later discovered the folding directions in the book Origami for Christmas by Chiyo Araki as part of a decorative box project.

It was a LOGOS moment, God's kingdom revealed.
Katelyn came home singing her LOGOS songs over and over again from John 3:16, which the elementary children had sung in church a while back.
Her little child's voice lifted up God's message to the world: God sent Jesus Christ, who died for us so that we might have eternal life.
They have demonstrated their love for God, and for children and youth, as they shared their gifts in this ministry.
Parents who have presented their children faor dedication or the Sacrament of Baptism before the congregation, have committed themselves to rear their child in "the nurture and admonition of the Lord."

In program 1, students work in cooperative groups to sort cards with shapes as they review the attributes and names of geometric figures.
During the process of folding, students review attributes of geometric shapes and mathematics vocabulary.
2.2 Know that the sum of the angles of any triangle is 180 0 and the sum of the angles of any quadrilateral is 3600 and use this information to solve problems.
Short YOUR TIME segments are provided to complete some folds and to list the geometric shapes and terms they recognize as they fold.
Origami involves precise folding (fine motor skills).
3. What is the name of a triangle with three congruent sides?
