Making A Spaceship

For the last few days Ryan has been talking about spaceships and how he would like to go to Chuck-E-Cheese in his spaceship! He started out by first building one out of the big blocks and sticks! All the children hopped in to go for a ride!!


After he created that one, we set out lots of different materials the children could possibly use to make their very own spaceship. We also provided them with a few different pictures of spaceships.




While some of the students put some of the pieces together, the other ones wanted to draw their own and cut it out!




We looked at the pictures to talk about what we saw, we also looked at the shapes on everything..

We used the black pieces for windows all across it...
Some students even made their own mini spaceship and preferred certain colors over others! :-)

We also used the CD's as windows..

After making it, we practiced writing the word, "SPACESHIP"

and this is what the children created!
The tape rolls on the bottom is where the fire comes out from.
The little blue circles are where the people go in from.
The Popsicle stick in the front is the computer board that is used inside the space ship.
The tubes on the side are the tanks.
