You will need to do part of this activity in the dark with the lights off and curtains drawn.
We suggest students work in pairs. Homeschool students will need two flashlights and a partner to help with a few steps.
Each printout has 12 Big Dipper pictures. Cut up enough Big Dipper sheets to provide each student with one star picture.
Set up activity stations by posting Sky Sheets on walls that will be dark or dimly lit when you pull the shades and turn out the lights. We recommend that each pair of students works at an activity station. If classroom space is limited, we’ve found that one station can comfortably accommodate up to 8 students taking turns.
