Starter/Plenary

An engaging KS3 starter activity for the space unit. It is an easy activity to run as it just requires the teacher to read out a series of statements.

There are ten keywords that each have five descriptive statements. Read out the first statement - if students can guess what it is referring to then they write their answer on a mini-whiteboard and put their hand up.

If students guess the keyword after one clue they get five points, after the second they get four points, etc.

Keywords include the solar system, Jupiter, the Moon, comets.
