SCIENCE ALIVE

Yesterday Room 11 were lucky to have Science Alive visiting.  Here are some photos and our thoughts.

We turned on the light which made the solar panelled car work.

When it ran out of light it stopped.

Paige is holding Jupiter, Rowan is holding Uranus, Caleb is looking at

Saturn  and Dion has Mars.  Then we put them in order.

This group has put the planets in order from Mercury to Neptune.

John is showing us how the earth moves around the sun as well as the moon.



Jay's Mum is helping us read the instructions.

We were looking at which way the sun sets. 

John was giving us instructions about the dome.  Our voices were echoing.  The planets were very cool to look at.  We could also see the milky way.  We learnt lots of names for the different constellations and where to look for them.  It was dark in there and it really did look like the night sky.  There was awesome twinkling stars.
