Roaring Rockets Worksheets

by Tony Mitton

ATOS 1.9

A rocket stands on its launch pad, ready to soar, as three animal astronauts carry their cool white suits and oxygen helmets on board. After the countdown and blast-off, the empty fuel tanks drop away, the astronauts must fasten in tight because they are so light in space, and the rocket zooms all the way to the big, round moon, where a lander with fiery boosters comes down. A short rhyming Amazing Machines read-aloud about how rockets work and what astronauts do.
