Free-flow ideas for sci-fi fun!
Your class will love thinking up feature ideas for an alien, and independent writers will be keen to fill up the lines of this sheet with their descriptions. Are the alien’s eyes rolling, red, twinkly as stars, or different again? Could its skin be soggy, spiky, scorching as desert sand or covered in green hair, perhaps? Discuss possibilities with the class to unlock minds, and let each read out a line afterwards. See my other free alien writing sheet too, for a format variation - also my other space writing sheets, featuring planets, stars, and space rhymes.
A goody-bag of bright, cheerful, fun activities: rhymes, writing and colouring. Topics - dragons, colours, stars, aliens, snakes and butterflies. Lively and calming activities to mix and match to needs.
Upbeat learning approaches for these challenging and unsettling Covid times.
See Fun & Cheer for other age groups too.
Children can design their own planet in simile form, using the easier or harder picture-poem frames, then make up crazy features for the aliens who inhabit it, again using the easier or harder Alien poem frames. Great for learning through fun!
