Craft: Telescope
This week's craft is based on the picture above. The children colored a half-sheet of cardstock before gluing into a cylinder. They could then decorate their telescope with star stickers. (You might need to use tape to reinforce the glue on the telescope.)
Literacy Extensions:
- Learn about the various constellations. There are several great books about constellations for young children.
- Visit the St. Louis Planetarium to learn more about the night sky.
