Our Solar System

We kick started this term off exploring a talking tub.  This was a box which was full of a variety of resources all relating to our theme this term of Space.  There were objects such as newspaper articles, photographs, posters, DVDs, toys.  As a class we discussed the objects that we came across, noting down facts and information that we already know about our topic and creating a list of questions that we wanted to find out more about.  We already knew an amazing amount of information about space which we shared and we also have a wall in our classroom dedicated to all the questions that we would like to try and answer!  We have started our topic off with a group project to create a power point presentation about a planet of our own choosing as finding our more about each of the planets was one of the most common questions that cropped up.
