Originally reviewed on TPTcan be tricky but fun!
A bit hard to set up with the small pieces and keep track of everything, but my students enjoyed making them. Make sure to print extras of the tiny pieces though!

My kids really enjoyed doing this craft and it went great with our end of the year science lessons. This Shape Astronaut Craft and Graphing Activity was a fun and creative activity. My kids enjoyed building their own astronaut while strengthening shape recognition and understanding shape properties through hands-on practice. The added graphing and reflection component makes it a well-rounded activity that seamlessly combines math skills with creativity. Thank you!
