On Monday this week we had a meeting with Dr Graham Kerr who works at NASA in the USA. Dr Kerr originally comes from quite close to Banton, about half an hour drive away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Kerr tooks us through an explanation of his work on Sun, solar activity, solar probes and lots more. He told us some incredible facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also answered our questions on a whole host of space related facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the meeting I asked the Biggies to do some research and create some art on anything that had caught their interest. They have worked really hard both in school and at home!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minecraft in Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As today is the last day beforethe holidays, we spent some time making the solar system in Minecraft. Some of the builds were really inventive. The Sun, planets, astronauts and more. Juliet even had hollow planets with information boards inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
