Activity | Grades K-8 | This hands-on activity guides learners through constructing their own astrolabe to practice angle measurements for determining height, effectively integrating geometry into astronomy units. Educators can apply this in the classroom by having students build the device using simple materials, then follow step-by-step instructions to sight objects like the sun or stars to calculate angles.
