Learners practice locomotor movements and space awareness while reinforcing knowledge of living and non-living things learned from the classroom.

Fourth graders participate in a game reflecting the solar system, stars, and rockets. They simulate how space invaders move and hit stars and rockets. They discuss how scientists study the stars and planets.
