Begin the lesson by introducing students to the fascinating world of astronomy. Discuss the role of astronomers and their contributions to our understanding of space. Highlight how both professional and amateur astronomers observe celestial objects.

Explain the tools and methods used by astronomers, such as telescopes and radio telescopes, to observe celestial objects. Discuss the importance of collaboration among international space organizations.

Introduce the video 'Space Exploration – Beyond Our Planet' to provide visual examples of space exploration technologies and their contributions to astronomy.

Engage students in a discussion about how amateur astronomers can observe the night sky using simple tools like binoculars or a smartphone app. Encourage them to share their experiences or expectations.

Have students participate in a hands-on activity where they use a simple telescope or binoculars to observe celestial objects. Encourage them to record their observations and share with the class.

Assign students to observe the night sky at home and use a star chart or app to identify constellations and planets. Encourage them to document their findings in a journal.

Conduct a class discussion to check students' understanding of the tools and methods used by astronomers. Ask questions to assess their knowledge of celestial objects and the role of amateur astronomers.

Encourage students to reflect on what they have learned about astronomy and the contributions of amateur astronomers. Discuss how their observations can contribute to scientific knowledge.

Use the 'Space' assessment to evaluate students' understanding of space-related concepts, such as the solar system and Earth's movement.

Encourage students to take the Unit Quiz to test their comprehension of the 'In the Field – Amateur Astronomer' topic.
