Explore the theme

Distinguish objects seen in the sky from vehicles and instruments used to explore it. Words to begin with include moon, planet, star, rocket, comet, telescope.

Words, images and a conversation

A word search practices spelling; a matching game connects pictures; coloring draws attention to planet circles, star points and a rocket’s long body. Choose one activity and add another only if it offers a different way to participate.

An idea to continue

Sort words into celestial objects and human-made objects; a rocket belongs in the second group.
