Kids transform into mini Astronomers! 2 freebies from Austin Kids (edit: this site is down) and Girl Start (both featured above). Punch (make holes) the templates and stick the printable cards over a flashlight, turn off the lights, and go stargazing indoors! Update: here is another link for a free printable of constellation templates from Playground Park Bench!
Also, check out Moon Phase Viewer and Cloud Viewer!
This is awesome, I love your site!! We just finished up learning about planets and the moon...this will be a great enrichment activity, thank you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI would love to do this with my earth science class. where did you find the constellation templates?
ReplyDeleteHi, this link tot he Austin Kids template (with the photos of constellations) is expired. Do you have this template?
ReplyDeleteJust now seeing this! I added a link to another free printable! I loved Austin Kids! - it was a museum site - I'm going to try to hunt it down!
ReplyDeleteHere is a new link for the round constellation pictures so they can be viewed through a cup or a flashlight
