We listened Mars and Jupiter. We then used this to inspire us to make our own garage band space music in groups, it was fun making the music and also fun to explore! I learnt that space music can be creepy and drums can make it sound creepy.

Earth rotates around the sun that takes one year. Dara

The difference between a moon and a planet is that a planet orbits around the sun and the moon orbits around its own planet. Molivann

I learnt that we have an atmosphere to help us breath and so we don't float in spaces from gravity.-Bridie

Earth rotates and for the earth to make a full 360 is 24 hours and each 15 degrees is 1 hour. Daniel

I learnt that there are some planets where you cannot live in because 1. Maybe they are gas planets and don`t have a surface, or maybe their atmosphere is carbon-dioxide. Molivann

How the World Works Solar System

We have started a new unit called How the World Works- Solar System

Our central idea is: Earth's place in our solar system affects our everyday lives.

Lines of inquiry:
Earth as a unique planet in our solar system (Form)
The effects of rotation and Orbit on the Earth (Function)
The effects of the Earth's place in the solar system on us ( Connection)

We are going to be inquirers and curious about our planet and our solar system.
We have lots of questions already !
