Wings’ Aerospace Science Program (W.A.S.P.) is a hands on, inquiry-based kit developed by teachers for teachers. The kit uses the magic of aviation to spark students’ interest in science. Each lesson includes hands-on activities to illustrate core science concepts such as process and inquiry, physical science, life science, earth and space science and the nature of science.
If you're a teacher who's interested in implementing W.A.S.P., sign up now.
W.A.S.P. was developed by teachers, for teachers and contains the “best of the best” – the most effective eight lessons from a year-long curriculum which was statistically proven to increase student scores in math and science. We have been working with the Program for five years and have gotten great feedback from the teachers we've trained to use W.A.S.P. in Colorado. We're glad that you've decided to use this highly-effective, standards-based curriculum with your students!
The staff at W.A.S.P. is dedicated to teaching and motivating kids. We know that learning is easier when it’s exciting and we’ve experienced first hand the fun and fast-paced learning that happens using W.A.S.P.
