Activity 1A. Reading. Active strategies “Story board”

Omar.

The world of space is amazing! What is it? Stars, meteorites, planets... they are extraordinarily beautiful, each in its own unique. But other than Earth, there is no life on other planets.

Ann.

Our world is very interesting, but space is even more interesting! I have a lot of questions about space. What do stars look like? What do planets look like? I would very much like to be in the place of Yuri Gagarin and say his famous words: "let's Go!".

Kris.

Space is very mysterious, and we still do not know what is on the other side of the Sun. I don't think all the planets are alike. The Sun - a ball of fire, Mercury - on the round stone, Venus, Mars and Saturn look like huge lollipops. The earth is different colors on all sides because it has life on it, so it's hard for me to tell what our planet is like.
