Stars and Constellations - Activities & Worksheets
What educators are saying
Description
Students connect with constellations while completing four stellar star activities. First, they connect the dots and count by ones, twos, fives, or tens to practice making star patterns. Next, students draw dots and lines to make star patterns of their own for the constellation Gemini. Then, they match constellations to pictures and connect the groups of stars in new ways to change the original star patterns. Finally, students use mini marshmallows and pretzel sticks to build (and eat!) constellations on a whimsical space-themed place mat.
