Get ready for...AN ADVENTURE in SPACE! The kids had so much fun designing their very own astronaut scrapbook pages each day as we visited new places in the Solar System! I dressed up in my fuzzy astronaut helmet, and we began by learning all about Amazing Astronauts! {Isn't this one adorable?}
We went on a virtual field trip with NASA and learned that the sun is not just yellow--it is all the colors of the rainbow! {This is our ROY G BIV sun, complete with solar flares, sunspots, and solar winds.}
We visited each planet in the Solar System and journaled the cool facts we learned there!
These scrapbooks were such a fun way for my students to record their learning! They loved looking back and reading why "Mars is Magnificent" and why "Earth is Extraordinary"!
I have uploaded *a new and improved--seriously very cool* Adventures in Space scrapbook (created on my brand new MacBook--WOOT!) to my TpT store for $4.00--but I will send 2 out for free to the first two friends who comment! {Just leave me your email address!}
Hope you have amazing adventures in space...
Me me! Yay! THank you!!
