The Beautiful Planet in 3D
Primary 7a and 7b visited the Odeon cinema today at Braehead. We went along as part of the ‘GLASGOW INTO FILM FESTIVAL.’ As our topic is Beyond Space; the film gave us an insight into what is happening to our beautiful planet and how the astronauts on board the International Space Station can see the impact of fossil fuels, deforestation etc around the world.
