    The Classroom Astronomer Magazine was a quarterly PDF publication designed as a practitioner journal for classroom teachers of astronomy. While centered at the high school level, it also provided tips, techniques and informative how-to articles for teachers of grades K-8 and undergraduate college "Astro 101" courses, and others. The magazine's mission was to increase the amount of astronomy in the school systems and improve the skills of teachers.

    TCA was published from 2009 until 2015.  You can go to the legacy website for some free articles, for all Tables of Contents, for a detailed index of all relevant articles arranged by subject area and educational level.  Start at www.classroomastronomer.com/currentindex.html .
