1 Space Explorers Trading Cards Previsit Activity for Space Exploration DigitalVision Grades 4-8 CDE Standards Science: 4.4e,5d Language Arts 1,2,3,4,5,6 History: 1,2,4
2 Preparation and Materials Estimated Preparation Time: 30 minutes Estimated Activity Time: Two or more time periods of 30 minutes each Materials Copies of reproducible trading card Pencils Crayons or colored pencils Astronaut biographies Learning Goals/Objectives Students will Research space explorers Describe the training necessary to become an astronaut or space explorer Compare various jobs of astronauts during a given mission and the contributions of other space explorers Connection to Space Odyssey When visiting Space Odyssey, visitors will be transported into space and onto the surface of Mars. At our Mars Outpost, visitors will be able to communicate with an astronaut on the surface of Mars. The astronaut will be performing many experiments to learn more about the surface of Mars. In this activity, students will learn about the explorers who have made important discoveries about space and space travel. Advanced Preparation 1. Locate several biographies about astronauts and space explorers at your students reading level. 2. Reproduce copies of the trading card sheet for each student in your class. Classroom Activity 1. Have students choose an astronaut or space explorer to research. Provide several kinds of resources for students to utilize including biographies and Web sites. 2. After students have read and gathered information about their explorer, have them complete the space explorer trading card activity
3 sheet. On the front of the trading card they will draw a picture of their space explorer. On the back of the trading card they will provide important information about their explorer. 3. Allow students to present their research either to small groups or to the whole class. 4. Publish the trading cards in a classroom resource book. Variations/Extensions 1. Have students work in pairs or small groups to list similarities and differences among the space explorers they studied. 2. Have students work in small groups to design trivia games about astronauts and space exploration using the classroom resource book. Resources Books Andronik, Catherine.
