    I would start by bringing the children into the sensory room and turning on the ‘night sky’ projector. I would then spark the discussions about the stars and what we see.

     

    I would start the lesson back in the classroom with a KWL chart. I would then start the lesson on constellations.

    an introductory video: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D1sZ15SUeS9w&sa=U&sqi=2&ved=2ahUKEwjCv57znOGHAxUjVkEAHRiaO5UQwqsBegQIIhAF&usg=AOvVaw0NF0zDYr09BRxQr39ysqOd

     

    mapping: Children will be given flash cards and using a key, in groups they will see if they can identify constellations.

     

    conclusion: Children will plot a constellation on black paper using stickers. Then using ‘splatter art’ / blow pens they will fill in the night sky.
