Who says that kindergarten isn't rocket science??

We started off our study of Objects In The Sky this week.  We read about astronauts and space ships.  Then we brainstormed things that we would need for a Spaceship Center.  Below is the list of what we needed to make and pictures of us working as a team to create the center.

These rocket boosters will be tall!

This satellite should help us learn about space.

It's finally finished!

We're taking off for our first mission!
