Activity Set: Space and Aliens
I would start by using the story Aliens wear underpants as a stimulus for discussing space and aliens.
We would discuss what we know about space and aliens as a group. We could the look at footage of aliens
As an art lesson we would create an alien and add features such as google eyes and foil to create different affects and integrating materials. We could then incorporate some drama by making the aliens come to life and they could tell their story of what it is like in space. What do they do all day, what do they eat, how do the communicate etc
I would then incorporate some phonics aspect to the lesson possibly labelling their alien and giving it a name. We could then use language from the book aliens wear underpants and sound out the words on the IWB to incorporate a phonics aspect to the lesson.
