Space Literacy Centers + Freebie!;)

Hi Blog Friends!
In the craziness of the end of the year, I didn't take very many space pics:( AND I never got around to posting them...so, here they are...FINALLY!;)
Here are a couple of the Literacy centers that we did:

This one is a spinner game. The kiddos spin the spinner and move around the game board to a star word ending. Then, they spin the other spinner for the beginning sound of their word and blend the 2 together to make a "word from Earth" or a "word from Mars" and record it on their response sheet. You can pick this center up at my TPT store by clicking on the pic below:)
 Here's another one we did-We called it "star gazing";)


I hung these stars on the ceiling and the kiddos used paper towel tubes as their "telescopes" to look at the stars:)...click on the pick below to download all of the stars!!
Then, they recorded their sight words on this response sheet-click here to get yours:)

We also made Deanna Jump's little Aliens from her Alien Invasion Unit!!
Aren't they the CUTEST!?!?
I even had a parent who loved it soooo much that she had it framed and it is hanging in their living room as we speak:)!!! I ♥ that!;) Isn't that awesome?! LOVE when parents treasure the little things that their kinders bring home:) THANKS DEANNA!!!

AND just look at all of the words my Kinders made out of the word Underpants!!! I'm so proud of them:)
You can also download this little "Aliens Love Underpants" sign that I hung with my hallway display:)
