Description
Are you searching for a way to engage students while learning Earth and Space Science? This Space Science Board Game printable is an absolute favourite in my classroom! Students are always fully immersed in playing this game and ask to play it over and over.
Suitable for middle school science students in grades 6, 7 or 8.
I always got so frustrated when I found a good science board game but then couldn’t afford to buy 8 of them so my whole class could play. That is why I created this! This printable board game for space science can be played by as many groups as you wish! Just print the number of boards, quiz cards and instructions that you need.
