My Weekly Reader September 11, 1961


 September 11, 1961

So I came across another "stash" of old Weekly Readers that I am going to share for the next few weeks. I have written before how these tiny newspaper appeared in our classrooms every week during the school year (and the summer too). I really love how our progress in the space race was filtered down to school aged children.

Make Your Own Space Station (1970)

 



Today I have found some "space crafting" : ) projects for you. Make Your Own Space Station is a series of cards that show you how to built some cute little space toys. It seems to have been part of of series of crafting cards of projects you could make from household objects. Probably a little strange but also a lot of fun to try.

Make Your Own Space Station. (Spears Games Project Cards.) New York: Ace Publishing. (10 cards.) 1970.
