Astronaut Log and Mission Diary (International Space Station Primary Kit)

Here is the first part of the International Space Station Primary Kit!

http://esamultimedia.esa.int/docs/primedukit/en/PrimEduKit_intro_en.pdf

It has info for teachers, until you get to page 7, where you can find the astronaut log.
The astronaut log is best for recording any learning that you have done which might not be written down anywhere. This might be discussions, reading, websites used or films watched. This can be a really nice way to keep evidence of learning in addition to any pictures, film clips or photos.

The Mission Diary on pages 8 & 9 is a bit different. It helps to show the difference between what the child knew before starting out and what they have learnt through taking part. You don't have to use this, but as it doesn't take long to complete, it's probably worthwhile.

And finally...

On page 10 of the document, there is a nice looking completion certificate. Not sure why it isn't at the end, but take a look anyway. You can award this to your child once they have completed all/most of the activities.
