I just completed an interesting activity in a course on teaching elementary science. Students were paired up and given a planet, a moon, or an asteroid and tasked with making an alien from that astronomical body. I thought it was a great project because it required students to research their planet, moon, or asteroid and find out a few characteristics that make life on that body difficult if not impossible. Then the students had to design an alien that could survive in spite of those planetary characteristics. Students had to give a short presentation on their planet and alien to share what they learned. I really enjoyed it.
