Ways to use this collection
This small set has two scenes with clearly drawn machine parts: a spaceship approaching a space station with unfolded solar panels, and a probe with a dish antenna gliding past a comet with a long tail. Both pages invite children to point at each part and say its name as they color.
Activity ideas
- Let two children play the station and the spaceship, slowly walking toward each other until their palms touch, so the word 'docking' becomes something they feel with their bodies.
- Color the comet's tail in alternating blue and white, then tear long strips of white paper and glue them on so the tail stretches beyond the page.
- Imagine the probe's dish antenna sending signals to Earth, and have friends pass short messages to each other on paper-cup telephones.
Tip The station page has a lot of grid squares on the solar panels, so give it extra time, while the comet probe has fewer shapes and fits a short session.
