DLTK's Outer Space Activities
Earth Themed Printable Writing Prompt Worksheets

Your child may choose to focus their own story on the themes within the planet Mercury, or they may let their imagination run wild. Anything is possible with fiction!  I think story spark sentences are a great way to expand your child's vocabulary, and give your child the ability to get creative!
