Our topic this term is Space. We will explore our solar system, learning about the planets, stars, and other celestial objects. We will also look closely at what astronaut’s experience in space and how technology helps us discover more about the universe. Through computational thinking and technology, we will investigate how space probes, satellites, and rovers work. As part of Health Schools, we will learn about keeping our bodies healthy, comparing life on Earth to the challenges of staying healthy in space. We will also consider the impact humans have beyond our planet and think about how we can care for space environments responsibly.
