We have really enjoyed our topic this term. As we were learning all about seasons, earth, moon and sun in science, we decided to link our topic to space. We had a partner challenge to make a rocket from household junk. We have written wonderful story books about our adventures in our home made rocket to the silver planet. We created interesting aliens to join us on an adventure.
In science we learned that the earth spins. When it is facing the sun we have daylight when our countries are away from the sun it is night time. We enjoyed a cooperative challenge to make a model which shows that the earth turns to make day and night. Some of us were very clever and tried to add a moon spinning around the earth.

Your aliens are fantastic. What great imaginations you have. I am looking forward to reading your books once they are published.
