Half at Home

What if the aliens sneaked into your home…?

Don’t worry. They’re perfectly friendly. But imagine them looking around. What would they find??

Half at Home

Let’s find out!

Today you will go on a hunt at home. Start by getting a piece of paper ready. Turn the paper sideways and fold it in half, like this:

On one side of the paper, write YES! On the other side of the paper, write NO!

Half at Home

And now for a hunt!

Find things in your house that the aliens might find! For each thing that you find, write it down on one side of the paper. If the aliens can cut it in half, put it on the YES! side. If the aliens cannot cut it in half, put it on the NO! side.

Find at least three things for each side. Maybe you can even find more!! 5??? 8?? 10????

Half at Home

Here is our paper (so far)! What can you find???
