K-2 Module 4

This three lesson module explores space missions and space exploration. Through mission planning, creative hands-on activities, and play-based learning, students can plan their own mission to a chosen planet, utilizing their newly acquired knowledge of Astrobiology topics. Students will plan their mission by choosing careers and setting goals (Lesson 1), creating a spacecraft (Lesson 2), and completing their mission by making scientific discoveries (Lesson 3). They will use their collaboration skills to complete this mission with their team. The K-2 modules do not need to be completed sequentially; you can pick and choose which modules work for your classroom.
