Liftoff Languages
Note
This activity was originally created for the #TrainLikeanAstronaut Challenges as a part of ESA Education’s Expedition: Home initiative.
Using the internet, a book or by asking a friend or family member, learn to say “5,4,3,2,1, liftoff” in a language other than your own. Practice saying it a few times. Practice your jumping jacks and when completing the “lift-off jump” extend your arms and legs to form the shape of a star in the air. Put it all together and show us what you’ve got!
