Day 19 Aliens



Good Morning Kindergarten! Today we are going to focus a bit more on the fiction side of space. So far you have learned lots of wonderful true information about space and the planets and stars that are in it. Today we are going to learn some about aliens! So far aliens are just pretend. Scientists wonder if there might be other creatures living way out in our galaxy, but they have not found any evidence that they exist yet. Here are a few videos about whether or not scientists think aliens exist: https://youtu.be/PpWP7GGjJ6k


Since all of the aliens we are used to thinking about come from our imagination, we are going to be reading some fiction books today about aliens. The first book is Aliens Love Underpants, listen for the rhyming words while we listen to this story and pay close attention to the pictures, they have lots of hidden little details. https://youtu.be/HmYqb4mJO7Y


Our next story is a fractured fairytale. That means it is a different version of a familiar story. Can you figure out which story this one sounds like? The book is called The Three Little Aliens and the Big Bad Robot. https://youtu.be/5-FJVYaxuRg


If you said The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf, you are right! This story sounds a lot like the three little pigs, but the author changed the setting, that’s where the story takes place, to outer space. Today for your activity I would like for you to create your own alien from your imagination. You can draw it any color or shape or design you want! When you are done drawing your alien label it’s parts like the diagrams we have done of animals and write two sentences about what your alien can do. I look forward to seeing what you create!
