Space space space! 16 January 2019 - 1 February 2019

The fun space themed activities continue!
We used air dry clay to make some space creatures.



We did a bit of time telling practice- astronauts have to keep track of time in space as they don't have day or night in the sane way as on Earth.


We did an alien spotting sheet from a website.


We made some rockets.


Vin drew a cool alien.


We made a space station with magnetic tiles.


We watched videos about the solar eclipse and made our own solar eclipse pictures.


We read about constellations and made one with marshmallows and cocktail sticks.


We did the Mars diary activities from the website www.marsdiary.org.
We also did activities from books such as this one (I simplified a lot of the challenges though as it is for much older children!)


We made spaceships from Lego.


Vin wrote a letter to Tim Peake.


We went to a story making activity at the park. Vin made a picture book.


We made planet cookies (they have mars bars in :D)


Vin made another Rover.


We read about nutrition and healthy eating, it's important for astronauts to look after their bodies and eat properly and exercise. We sorted our play food into the different food groups.


We drew on plates some foods for the astronauts to eat.


We drew our solar system with chalk.


Vin finished his solar system model. It looked great!


Vin invented a game using the space poster and stickers that you could send off for from some snacks. We didn't have the cards that you could collect so he made up his own idea using a dice and the stickers.


Our wall of planets and space themed things was complete!
