This week we have had another very busy week. Not only did we start our Literature Circles, we also prepared for a moon landing by designing vehicles and space buildings. Here are a few of our finished products.
It has a camera on the top so that it can take pictures of The Moon. It can move so that it can explore the moon and pick up rocks.
The building on The Moon is about 5′ tall, which is the same size as Emily! We are a good team.
Here are our models. One is a NASA rocket, it can fly up to the moon and 100 miles per hour. It can carry up to 1000kg. Our other model is a space probe, it has a bin and arms at the front and a satellite at the top.
We also learned about the phases of The Moon and how The Moon affect the oceans on Earth. We are trying to make a video of our work so hopefully we will be able to upload that soon!
Hope you have enjoyed reading about our learning this week. If you have why not leave us a commnet? Miss Anderson will give a prize to the person who leaves the BEST comment for us.

Really good model they took ages too make them they look really cool the nasa rocket is cool because it’s really tall and how it can carry up to 1000KG I would like to ride in one of them it would be fun
All the models look and sound great, I am really looking forward to seeing them in class on Monday. Sounds like you have had a busy week.
P6a, I’m very impressed by the thought you have given to what your moon buggy would require. I’m also looking forward to listening to your Literature Circles later in the term. Well done!
I loved building the probes even though it took us AGES.it was fun but we did have a busy week and I should know on Friday I fell onto the couch and didn’t move until bedtime thinking about the way the moon controls the tide and imagining being on the beach and watching the tide go in then out and so on and so forth 🙂
