We are simply out of this world!

 After celebrating Chinese new year the children had decided that the only way to see a dragon would be to go into space as "they fly really, really high in the sky up near the moon" So off we go to see if we see any dragons.

After deciding how we were going to get to space we made our own rocket and space station.


Making snips in paper to put in the rocket's window 
"It needs to be blue and have sticky bits"
Looking at outer space through a window

"I can make buttons and controls"

 After listening to the story Aliens Love Underpants we used a variety of loose materials and dough to make our own aliens.








Our small world space station
 
 
 Counting down to blast off
 


We have  been helping our friends decide if they would like to travel to earth, the moon or the sun and how they would like to travel there.  

Then off we go!
