We have touchdown...

Last week we reluctantly concluded our GIVE ME SOME SPACE unit. We finished by discovering 'the Astronaut in Me' - yep, amazingly we discovered that the attributes which make a good member of our classroom also are the attributes which make a good space engineer! 

Over these 4 weeks we have learned about the International Space Station, but also about so much more - the earth's atmosphere, the planets in our solar system, the sun, asteroids... the list goes on. We watched amazing videos, we learned how to take notes, we imagined ourselves as astronauts, and took Space-selfies. We spoke to a real live Space Engineer. We measured, we imagined, and we created a scale replica of a Sleep Station! Scroll down to see other posts showing all this learning. We hope you have enjoyed these blog posts, and the Space Booklets that the tamariki proudly took home last Thursday. We have had a blast with this learning.
