Hello, My Out of This World Students,

You did an amazing job researching your astronaut in the Media Center! Work with your partner to use your research to write a paragraph about your astronaut.


Make sure your paragraph contains a main idea sentence, at least 4 facts about your astronaut, and a closing sentence.


I can't wait to read about everything you have learned!


Your very proud teacher,
