An editable script for a space-themed assembly for younger pupils.
Features two songs for children to sing and 30 separate speaking parts (though these are easily combined should you have children who do not wish to speak).
The basic premise of the assembly is that two children in the class want to go on holiday to space and so listen to some facts about the eight planets to help make their decision. They don’t want to stay on planet Earth because it’s too messy!
In the end they realise that the other planets would not be great holiday destinations because they’re too hot/too cold/too rocky/too smelly! They choose to stay on planet Earth but realise that they have to help to look after it to keep it a nice place to live.
We had great success with this assembly in Reception last year - the children (and parents) loved it - and it’s easily edited to make it work for other classes.

Aligned with the EYFS framework, each unit offers six weeks of captivating lesson plans and accompanying PDF resources, providing you with a treasure trove of 90 engaging lessons to captivate and educate your young learners.
Week 1: Introduction to Explorers
In the Literacy unit, students will develop communication, language, and literacy skills through interactive activities, storytelling, and writing tasks, while the Maths unit will reinforce numeracy concepts through exploratory and hands-on tasks. The Wider Curriculum unit will introduce students to explorers’ lives, fostering an appreciation for history, geography, art, science, and personal, social, health, and economic (PSHE) education.
Week 2: Famous Explorers
The Literacy unit brings famous explorers to life through captivating reading materials, role-playing exercises, and writing prompts. The Maths unit continues to strengthen numeracy skills, while the Wider Curriculum unit delves deeper into history, geography, art, science, and PSHE topics related to famous explorers.
Week 3: Arctic Animals
Students will explore Arctic animals’ unique characteristics and habitat through engaging Literacy, Maths, and Wider Curriculum units. The Literacy unit incorporates reading comprehension, descriptive writing, and creative activities, while the Maths unit integrates Arctic-themed problem-solving, measurement, and pattern recognition. The Wider Curriculum unit delves into scientific concepts, art exploration, and geographical understanding of the Arctic region.
Week 4: Rainforest Explorers
The Literacy unit immerses students in the wonders of rainforest exploration through reading, writing, and imaginative activities. In the Maths unit, students will encounter rainforest-themed numerical challenges, shape recognition, and data interpretation. The Wider Curriculum unit deepens understanding through rainforest science, geography, art, and PSHE lessons.
Week 5: Exploring the Ocean
Students will dive into oceanic adventures with the Literacy unit, where they will engage in reading, writing, and speaking activities centered around marine life. The Maths unit reinforces numeracy skills through ocean-themed problem-solving and data analysis.

The Wider Curriculum unit delves into astronomy, geography, art, and PSHE lessons, expanding students’ understanding of the vastness of space.
With our EYFS Explorers Curriculum Bundle, you will have a wealth of resources at your fingertips to create an immersive and well-rounded learning experience for your young explorers. From literacy and maths to a wide range of subjects in the wider curriculum, this bundle provides a comprehensive foundation for their educational journey.
4 sets of flashcards showing Rockets from 1 to 5 for children to count, match or order.
Each set has a different colour background and style of rocket.
Cut and laminate and you can reuse as well as add to your classroom displays on Number and Space.
A word document of astronaut labels that can be persoanlised for each student.
This resource, last updated on 16th July 2024.
How I use this resource: Set up a role play area in your classroom based on the topic of ‘Space’. Children can be given the freedom to explore and create their own games using these astronaut labels, to pretend they are going up into space. You could also incorporate these into a lesson input or getting children into groups to act out what they think it would be like to go into NASA and then up into space.
Worksheet and comprehension on the Solar system and planets. Would be good for revision of the planets and as a stand alone if you need a sub/substitution/cover pack for Junior Certificate Science students.
Would also work for other School curriculums.
Please leave feedback.
To be used as a guided reading comprehension activity alongside Collins Big Cat book The Sun and the Moon.
Focus phonemes, tricky word and speed words. Cloze activity questions. Child to draw a picture of the sun or moon and write facts in sentences/captions.
This guide contains 25 activities designed for 4-H Clubs, Boys and Girls Clubs, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, after-school programs, and other informal education venues. Participants learn about the history and principles of rocketry and NASA's newest rockets -- Ares I and Ares V. While doing these hands-on activities, participants also learn about Hero Engines, parachutes and surface area, altitude tracking, and Newton&'s Laws Of Motion. Learners can also build four types of rockets and two types of egg drops.
This resource is a non-fiction comprehension activity for year 2. The theme of the comprehension is ‘living in space’ and the booklet covers what it is like for astronauts living in space stations, including what they eat, how they sleep, how they exercise and what they do in their spare time. It would be perfect for using during ‘World Space Week’ in October, during a space topic or during ‘Science Week.’
The booklets are based on the KS1 SATs reading paper. I have included 3 differentiated levels. There are a range of ‘what,’ ‘where,’ ‘how’ and ‘who’ questions, some multiple choice tick questions and some that require more detailed answers. The activity is also laid out in a similar way to the SATs booklets. There is a title page with helpful words followed by four pages of pictures and short written extracts to read and 4 questions per page. Each differentiated level contains 16 questions in total.
There is a colour and black white PDF version of the booklet for each level and answers are also included.
The Moon has 'phases.' That means it looks a little different to us each night during its one-month orbit of our planet. We describe how the Moon looks with terms such as 'Full Moon,' 'First Quarter,' and 'New Moon' (which we can't really see, because the side that is lit faces away from us).
The Moon has no light of its own. Moonlight is sunlight bouncing off the Moon&'s surface. As the Moon orbits Earth, the Sun lights up whatever side of the Moon is facing it.
1 of 5 quizzes that each last for about 10 minutes. Great for form / tutor group time or any other purpose! Each question slide is timed to 30 seconds with a countdown timer. The quizzes include, science, geography, music, sport, and picture rounds. Quizzes 2 to 5 are available here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/general-trivia-quizzes-for-form-time-tutor-group-assembly-11829293
